We haven't been back to New York since before the pandemic and this year we’re going have events and activities from Fulton Street to the Pier. It’s a full-on technology block party with indoor and outdoor stages, ping pong, basketball, reuniting our community, and welcoming all the new faces.” said Leanne Pittsford, Founder and CEO of Lesbians Who Tech & Allies.

The New York Summit is perfect for beginning, mid-level and executive women, trans, nonbinary leaders, and allies. Over 230 speakers will cover software development, engineering, AI, technology trends, cybersecurity and privacy, leadership, the state of remote work, and recruiting for Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity within tech and business.
