Bloomington Startup Weekend

Last night, I attended a meeting of Women Inspire, a three-year-old group promoting personal and professional connections between local women. I went specifically to make a special appeal to local women to help us achieve gender equity at Bloomington Startup Weekend.

Gender equity is a known problem in IT, to a greater degree than most professions. At the moment, Bloomington Startup Weekend has 11 women on board with 28 spots remaining. Let’s see at least a dozen more women register before we run out of opportunities.
