About this event

While the tech industry produces so much of the world’s innovations, diversity remains a challenge at all levels, ranging from startups to world-renowned enterprises.

In the fifth installment of VMware’s Engage and Empower series — where we dive into various facets of diversity and inclusion in the tech industry — we are hosting a panel focused on how companies and leadership can create an inclusive environment for technical teams.

The panelists include Angie Jones, Senior Director of Developer Relations at Applitools; Ellie Tumbuan, Head of Strategy and Culture at The Justice Collective; Kerry Schaffer, Senior Director of IT at OneMagnify; Wayne Sutton, Co-Founder at Change Catalyst; and the conversation will be moderated by Bryan Liles, Principal Engineer at VMware.

The discussion will dive into:
- How the panelists built a career in tech
- Ways to create accessibility and representation in the hiring pipeline
- How companies & technical leadership can create a welcoming, inclusive culture for diverse employees
- Resources and advice for those starting their careers in tech
