Join us to celebrate International Women’s Day NYC 2022 on April 4 - in-person at Diane von Furstenberg's flagship store and gallery space in NYC.
International Women’s Day (IWD) marks a moment to celebrate and provide visibility for the incredible contributions of women around the world and is a call to action for accelerating gender parity.
IWD is Women Techmakers' annual event campaign when our community hosts events in March and April. We create connections, educate and inspire, and recognize that we still have a ways to go to close the gender gap.
