🙋‍♀️💥 Tech it with Iphie, hosted by Ifunanya Ikemma

Ifunanya Ikemma has been part of communities for women in tech for years. Now she is giving back to the community that helped build her own career. What does it mean to be a woman in tech? How can you break into the industry? Tech it with Iphie is a guide to help women land jobs in tech regardless of their backgrounds, because you don’t need a technical background to be part of the solution. This important show uses real-life use cases of people who don’t have a technical background, didn’t study engineering, but still make meaningful contributions in tech.

As an educator and proud advocate for women in tech, Ifunayna is highlighting the need and opportunity for women with or without technical backgrounds. When we think about jobs at a tech company, we often think about software engineering, product management, and maybe even DevRel. Tech it with Iphie is pushing the audience to think about nontechnical roles, because in addition to engineers, tech companies need accountants, lawyers, and subject matter experts. No matter your background, there is a role for you in the tech community.

Watch Tech it with Iphie every Saturday at 1 pm GMT+1
