Ask HN: ISO Women in Tech
Hello fellow women in tech! I've been struggling lately with the lack of representation in our field - are you a woman in tech? Can you share your experiences, wisdom, struggles and solutions to being "rare" in this field? Why do you think there are very few women in tech and what can we do to encourage more young women to enter STEM fields?

- Regardsyjc 8y agoIf you're looking for more women in tech communities, there's a number of Facebook groups like Female founders community, Tech Ladies, Women in AR/VR, and more. Leap is an amazing community too. There's also meetups in nyc at least like Women Who Code or Pyladies. The Grace Hopper conference is dedicated to women in tech.
