About this event

Celebrating the Future of Women in Tech event is a celebration of the intersection of ventureLABs two key pillars of Hardware/Semiconductors and Diversity.

Join us for an afternoon of thought leadership presented by a panel of highly accomplished women in the deep tech industry, followed by networking opportunities within ventureLAB’s tech ecosystem.

Hear from our keynote speaker, Erin Bury, one of Canada’s top female entrepreneurs, an active startup advisor, and a former marketer and technology journalist. Erin is the co-founder and CEO at online estate planning platform Willful.

The panel Breaking Barriers for Women in Canada's Tech Sector will be moderated by ventureLAB's own Josée Pharand, a mechanical engineer who has been working in Canada's tech ecosystem for over 20 years. The panel will explore the progress that has been made so far in making the space more inclusive, talk about the challenges that still exist, and work together to brainstorm some concrete actions that could help move the needle going forward.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from our expert panelists as they celebrate the past while also looking to the future by bringing light to the ongoing discussion on the challenges women in tech face, and climbing the ladder in a male-dominated sector. Join us as we commemorate ventureLAB’s Tech Undivided program as it comes to a close.
