They will also provide insights into what skills are in demand in the industry and what trends we can expect to see in the future.

Our moderator, a successful woman in tech herself, will guide the conversation and encourage the panelists to share their experiences and insights on topics such as career development, managing work-life balance, building a personal brand, and networking.
