Technology is at the forefront of everyone’s mind, whether that is engaging with the explosion of AI across all industries, its strengths and challenges, cyber security or just integrating technology into our everyday lives. The LK Connect - Women in Tech event addressed all of these factors and reinforced the importance of women engaging in this industry.
We were very fortunate to hear from a broad range of panellists, highlighting the diversity of careers within the field of technology including project management, cyber security, e-commerce, problem-solving, analytics, UX/UI design, software development and creative opportunities.
Thank you to our host Janet Menzies, the Country Manager of Amazon and Loreto parent as well as our facilitator for the evening, Zoe Samios from the Sydney Morning Herald, for supporting Loreto Kirribilli’s Mentoring and Networking Program.
LK Connect harnesses the skills and professional expertise of ex-students and parents as mentors, to broaden career development and opportunities for ex-students. It is also an extension of our Loreto education, expanding our Loreto circle of friends. This platform provides a tangible way for our ex-students to support each other with the intention of achieving our school's purpose Tto make a positive difference in the world.’
