Women's Day 2018

Better later than never, here is a report of the first Women Development meet-up at CUSAT, that took place on 6 March 2018

The meetup venue was splendid, in the Seminar Hall of the School of Engineering, CUSAT.

The meet-up was hosted by Pehia and IT association of CUSAT. The premises, also splendid — all in white, welcomed about 150 girls attendees.

When you talk about a society’s development, it’s important to consider the women’s development and Women Dev meet-up at CUSAT was about to help the girls student to get involve into technology.

Thanuja, Mufeeda and I chaired the event. We welcomed all of speakers of the meet-up starting from Annalie Killian, Director Human Networks at sparks & honey with Anna-Grace Millward, founder of Orbispace, Irfan malik, founder of Inq Innovation and Enfa Rose, lead person at PEHIA.

The event went very well: great speakers, many enthusiastic girls students, a brain storming session by Enfa, many tweets and Facebook’s posts.
