There are moments that define our journey as a community, and this is undoubtedly one of them.
We are thrilled to announce a phenomenal accomplishment for Mia – Mission Impact Academy. Our unyielding efforts to bridge the gender gap in the world of AI have earned us the title of ‘Most Impactful Initiative’ at the WOMEN IN TECH®- Global Movement North America Awards in Washington, D.C.
This recognition from an esteemed institution is a powerful spotlight on our team’s relentless dedication and the vision we’re working towards.
Dedicated to addressing the gender disparity in the tech realm, the Women in Tech® Global Movement rolled out its second edition of the WIT Global Awards. Spearheaded by the visionary Ayumi Moore Aoki, the event’s core message is clear: Celebrate, honor, and uplift the groundbreaking women reshaping the tech industry’s landscape.
The WIT Americas Awards ceremony was held on September 27, 2023, in Washington DC, and was a clarion call for unity, innovation, and transformation.
Furthermore, the laureates of these awards have a further chance to shine on the global stage, with Janna Salokangas & Tarja Stephens now being finalists for the grand WOMEN IN TECH- Global Movement Awards set to dazzle Dubai on November 16, 2023.
