How to get involved

Online Events

Join our interactive online sessions to meet inspiring women in tech, tackle real-world challenges or learn new technical skills. Open to everyone but mostly aimed at secondary school and college students, with events ranging from Q&A panels to hands-on workshops.

Insight Days

Experience a day in the tech industry. These visits to company offices offer a chance to meet women in tech, hear their stories, and try hands-on activities. Most run during school holidays and are open to 16-25 year olds in full-time education. Lunch is included but you'll need to arrange your travel.

Conferences & Expos

Connect with the wider tech community at major industry events. We take groups of students to conferences and expos, where you can network with different companies, join workshops, or discover the latest innovations. Our team will be there to help you make valuable connections.

“Being a member of Next Tech Girls has meant a lot to me because I have not only found women that excel in tech, I have found women that look like me too. I have made lots of friends and the various events have been very fun.”
“Overall the day was very fun, enjoyable and enlightening. I managed to meet new people and make a few new friends. I loved that it was so unique compared to other work experiences that I attended and it was a lot more hands on, with less people just talking at you the whole day.”
“I feel as if this has been the best week of my year so far. I did not expect my experience to be so thrilling and educational at the same time. I wish I could have stayed for longer. Went into the LSEG unsure, and scared and then walked out with confidence to go into another office more prepared than ever before.”
