2013 Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing Conference
September 27, 2013
When it comes to reaching women in technology, there is absolutely no better forum than the annual
Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing Conference
. This conference has it all -- breaking down stereotypes and celebrating the accomplishments of women in the field of computer science, providing an avenue for collaboration and information exchange, encouraging female role models and mentoring, and building great networking opportunities. Google has, and will continue to be, a proud supporter of the conference because of its firm belief in celebrating women in computing and empowering the next generation of female tech leaders.
Next week, the event will take place over four days from October 2nd-5th at the Minneapolis Convention Center in Minnesota. This year’s theme for the conference is “Think Big, Drive Forward”, and while Google is certainly no stranger to the notion of moon shots, we know that this year is bound to have even bigger ideas and surprises in store than we can imagine.
If you plan on attending, we would love for you to come visit our booth (#507) to chat with Googlers, grab some swag, and take pictures at our photo booth. Join our
Google+ Event
to see what we’re up to and share interesting moments with us - don't forget to use the #ghc2013 hashtag!
We’ll also be hosting the following demos in our booth (#507):
