We’ve covered the movement before, but might we also add that Philly Tech Week features a handful of events dedicated to women, including the Women in Tech Summit, the Women in Science panel discussion, cross-listed with the Science Festival, the KEYSPOT: Women and Minority Tech Leaders event and the Podcasting Workshop by TechGirlz.
