How can advocacy drive true change for women and underrepresented groups in tech? Our upcoming meetup at the Marktplaats office dives into how moving beyond allyship to active advocacy can transform the tech landscape for everyone—across gender, neurodivergence, ethnicity, age, ability, and more.
As the main sponsor of the “Mavericks” campaign—by the creators of “Mijn naam is Peter”—we’ll explore the powerful impact of advocacy. Instead of ‘just’ supporting diversity; advocacy is about breaking barriers, amplifying voices, and creating real opportunities. Challenging systemic barriers and promoting inclusive leadership. This session will highlight actionable steps to champion inclusion and build a truly equitable future in technology. Learn from advocates leading the way, and connect with others committed to building a more inclusive tech industry.
