International Women’s Day (IWD), observed globally on March 8, is a powerful moment to recognize the incredible contributions of women everywhere, especially in technology, and to push forward progress toward gender equity. This year, GDG Raipur is proud to bring together a diverse group of women leaders, creators, engineers, and innovators for an inspiring tech talk series and community celebration.

At its core, our event is about visibility, opportunity, and action, creating space for women’s voices in tech, sharing real-world insights, strengthening community networks, and inspiring everyone (regardless of background) to contribute boldly and authentically to the future of technology.

Join us for:

• Tech Talks & Fireside Chats: Hear from women shaping the future across engineering, design, product, data, and dev communities.

• Career & Leadership Sessions: Practical insights and Q&A on navigating careers, breaking patterns, and building impactful tech journeys.

• Networking & Community Building: Connect with peers, mentors, and allies — because impact multiplies when we rise together.

• Celebrating Achievement & Influence: Recognizing women who are not just part of tech… but changing it.

Together, we reaffirm that equity in tech starts with visibility and grows through opportunity, community, and courage, so let’s celebrate, learn, and launch forward, together.

We’re excited to have you join us for one of the biggest Women in Tech community events in Central India, where you’ll get the opportunity to:

• Connect with industry leaders from Mastercard, GE Healthcare, and AppDirect

• Receive signed certificates from GDG Raipur

• Enjoy free snacks and refreshments

• Learn from inspiring talks, panels, and a hands-on AI workshop
