About Us

Our Mission

Women in Technology (WiT) is one of Queensland's most respected and active technology industry associations and a peak body for women in the technology industry in Queensland developing a sustainable and growing network of members, sponsors, supporters. WiT aims to promote the achievements of women in the technology industries via relevant events, programs, awards and networks that also provide opportunities for WiT members to grow and develop their skills. WiT has a commitment to be distinguished as a professional and credible organisation.

Our Vision

WiT's vision is to be an inconic orgainisation recognised by Government, commercial organisations and women at large as the voice of women working in the technology industries across Queensland. WiT will be evolutionary, visionary and acknowledged as an industry peak body that delivers a high standard of value to all members. Importantly WiT will smooth the pathways for future generations growing and strengthening the presence of women within the technology disciplines at all organisational levels, and be recognized as taking a pro-active role in linking industry to talent.

Our History

WiT was founded in 1997 with the support of just 10 women. The association has now grown to a membership of over 350 women and men and over 1200 affiliates.

In 2002 the association changed its name to Women in Technology; recognising the relationship between IT and emerging technology fields such as science and engineering. 

In 2005 WiT launched the Biotech and Infotech chapters, separate streams established to cater to the needs of the organisation's increasingly diverse membership. WiT delivers a range of programs for women of all career levels whether they are starting out or looking to extend themselves at a more senior level.

WiT is an icon in the industry to many women and represents the interests of all women in the fields of Information Technology and Biotechnology.

WiT is one of the leading technology industry associations for women in Australia.  Since our inception in 1997 WiT has been a pioneer in the development of industry development programs such as:

  • Board Readiness TM
  • ICT & Biotech Awards
  • Career Start
  • Professional Development workshops

WiT is also the first technology industry association to bring together members from diverse technology disciplines.  The introduction of our Women in Biotech Chapter in 2005 has highlighted the common ground shared by women in all areas of emerging technology.

WiT membership ranges from students through to senior executives and is not limited to women only.  This means catering our services for multiple targets audiences.  WiT prides itself on its innovative program of activities, including:

  • Workshops
  • Round table discussion groups
  • Major networking events
  • Coaching
  • Mentoring
