My lovely developer friend Amanda and I were chatting in a Slack group about a month ago, and found the conversation not what we were expecting. So we ran through a few options in our heads and decided with the rise of slack that we'd start our own. I purchased the domain and she started the Slack group and in a month we've grown to about 20 users so far.
The group is called Women in Tech Toronto and I just launched a holding page tonight, with master plans going on in the chat room between us all of what will end up there.
It's an exciting project and if you are a women in tech in... Toronto or anywhere else send me a message on any of the social channels or post a comment below and join us! Or hang in there we will add the forms to the website this week!
