Last Wednesday, we had the pleasure of hosting Pathways and Opportunities in Tech at DMU, delivered by the brilliant team at Coding Black Females. The event offered an inspiring glimpse into the tech industry, featuring a dynamic panel of professionals, including a DMU alumna (Seun Komolafe), who shared their journeys, challenges, and successes.
The Event: A Powerful Conversation
The event kicked off with an insightful panel discussion, where we were joined by experts who shared their experiences, challenges, and triumphs in the world of tech. The panel discussion focused on the various pathways available in the tech industry and the opportunities that exist for underrepresented groups, particularly Black women.
Our panellists, including industry leaders and tech professionals, shared their invaluable insights and personal stories. The conversation touched on everything from coding and software development to networking, mentorship, and breaking down barriers in the tech world.

Coding Black Females is an incredible organisation that provides a platform for Black women in tech to connect, grow, and thrive.
