Techtalks podcast episode, an upcoming Event and VIVE award – International Women’s Day at TechImpact
Another incredible International Women’s Day in the books for 2022 and this year was extra special for so many reasons. We launched a new podcast yesterday with Emma and Jharana talking about the Girls STEM UP Conference happening on March 20 and we announced our upcoming event on March 22 featuring three women who will talk about their careers in tech. Then, on top of that were the Government of New Brunswick VIVE Awards.
Girls STEM UP! Returns March 20
Happy International Women’s Day! This year’s them is #BreaktheBias, inviting us to imagine a more diverse, equitable and inclusive world.
If you’re a regular listener of the TechTalks Podcast, you know increasing the representation of women (and other groups) is a big focus here at TechImpact. For me personally, it’s my favourite cause. So I was thrilled to be joined on episode 33 with Emma Toole, member of the executive committee and Jharana Luitel, breakout speaker for Girls STEM UP!
Turning World-Class Research into World-Changing Innovations
Innovation doesn’t just happen. Without the dedicated efforts of researchers—and the funding needed to support those efforts—there would be no more world-changing technologies, products or services.
That’s why we’re talking about research on episode 32 of the TechTalks podcast with Dr. Laura Richard and Dr. Erik Scheme. Both of this episode’s guests are instrumental to New Brunswick’s thriving research and innovation ecosystem.
