Tech Wakeup: How to Solve the Sexism Problem

Here’s the next installment of our Leadership Salon Series.This is an invite-only event! If you would like to attend, join our emailing list and let us know!
Lately, it seems that Silicon Valley is a magnet for sexual harassment and professional incompetence. Much of the startup community, from venture capitalists to engineers to, startup executives have long ignored the toxic culture of sexism in the male dominated tech industry. Not much has been done to change this toxic culture. Until now. Women are bravely sharing their experiences, defining new codes of conduct and pushing for change. Join Lipstick and Politics for a discussion on the role of women in the tech industry, and how to solve the sexism problem.
