Are you a founder of an existing company? Need funding for your side hustle? Then join PDXWIT and ThinkShout for a discussion about women innovation, the roadblocks that exist when it comes to funding and what we can do as a community to drive the discussion forward. While we have more women in technology or science than ever, funding and inventorship claims are still at a low, yet investors supporting women entrepreneurs have found a higher average ROI (10% higher).

Attorneys Anna McCoy and Janina Malone will explore approaches to support organizations in enhancing women participation at all levels, including in brainstorming, invention submission, and beyond.

PDXWIT’s mission: Building a better tech industry by creating access, dismantling inequities and fueling belonging.

Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our mission are welcome.
