Overview

50% of women in technical roles leave the industry by the age of 35 due to the lack of mentorship, career support, and opportunities to advance into leadership roles. Join us in our mission to reverse this trend and foster the next generation of women tech leaders and role models. WEST is on a mission to democratize access to mentorship for women technologists. Career elevating mentorship is within your reach: - Join our free bi-monthly Leadership Talks featuring leaders from across the tech industry on topics such as managing up, influence, navigating the career ladder, and more - Get dedicated 1:1 support through our quarterly six-month Career Accelerators, where we match women with inspiring mentors and host our bespoke career development workshops - Get inspired and meet other women technologists at our annual WEST Summit! Since the program’s inception, we have empowered 450+ women and nonbinary folks through successful mentoring partnerships as they grew from IC to first time managers, navigated workplaces as “the only,” worked through career roadblocks, and more. We are looking to bridge the gender gap in tech through mentorship. Join us!
