About Us
Women in Information Technology (WIIT) traces its origins back to 2019, when a collective of experienced women working in the ICT field came together with a shared vision. Recognizing the pervasive gender disparities within the tech industry, they embarked on a journey to effect meaningful change.

With each passing year, WIIT reaffirms its commitment to breaking down barriers, amplifying voices, and fostering a more inclusive tech ecosystem. Through collective action and unwavering determination, WIIT continues to pave the way for a future where women are not only accepted but celebrated as integral contributors to the world of technology.
