Three days into my first week with SVLG, I joined Women in Tech Connect with my colleague Isabel. The event, hosted by the Bay Area Women’s Employee Network (BayWEN) at Texas Instruments, was supported by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group and the Society of Women Engineers, Santa Clara Valley. It was part of SVLG’s Employee Resource Group (ERG) Consortium, which aims to connect employee groups from across Silicon Valley companies to share best practices, build community, and advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace. This particular event brought together women in the regional technology sector to share experiences and practical advice for building careers in the industry.
