Europe’s fastest growing technology summit is looking to celebrate the great achievement of women in the field at their first ever awards ceremony.

Dublin Tech Summit has announced that nominations are now open for their Women In Tech Awards which will take place in November in the RDS.

Speaking of their first awards ceremony, DTS says the aim is to highlight the huge impact women are having in STEM industries and the huge success stories they can boast.

“As we strive to bridge equality gaps, there are still several industries where one gender is far more prevalent than another in the workplace with STEM industries being famously imbalanced,” DTS said.

“However, while women are currently the minority in terms of numbers within this industry, they are certainly not in the minority in terms of skills and achievements.

“Dublin’s inaugural Women In Tech Awards will be an evening where these extraordinary women and their accomplishments will be recognised, and workplace diversity will be celebrated.”


The ceremony will include 12 categories from the Trailblazer Award to the IT Business Leader Award.

Those nominated in the 12 categories will face the judgement of a very impressive international panel including the founder and CEO of Global Invest Her, Anne Ravanona, founder and CEO of the Fintech Times, Katia Lang, and co-founder of Hassle, Jules Coleman.

Nominations are now open so if you think you know someone who fits the bills, head over to Women In Tech to find out what you need to do.
