Women 2.0 PITCH: 99 word recap

Hundreds of women + dozens of men = Women 2.0 PITCH, V-Day.

Incredible speakers. Inspiring entrepreneurs. Lots of new friends

On multiple occasions, I was asked by female attendees if I now understood what its like to be the gender minority at tech events.

“No clue,” I said by the fifth time.

“Why?” they asked.

“Because you asked me how I’m doing. 

We rarely ask. 

You opened your circle when I approached. 

We rarely notice.

How could I know what its like to be outnumbered 9 to 1 everyday,” I thought, ”at the most welcoming tech event ever?”
