Founded in the Spring of 2016, Women in Digital now boasts 900+ members across 19 cities nationwide. From New York City to Austin to Seattle, our members gather monthly for meetups, or peer circles, to confidentially exchange their power by the way of Asks & Gives – our member pledge. We gather with one mission – to create a true network of like-minded women across the country and in your own city in order to create sweeping change for equality across our industry.
