What started as a way to highlight events and news will be expanding, as the group itself goes through this exciting period of growth and change.
We are now accepting blog submissions and photos from any members about the WIN events you attend. Or, maybe you have news about something cultural in the Irish community? An exciting update about an opportunity for women in tech? A project you are working on that you think the group should know about?
