Objectives
The academic objective of this trip is to expose the women to the fastest growing technology hub in North America. According to Price Waterhouse Coopers – Toronto is growing faster than Silicon Valley, New York and Washington combined.
During this visit they will meet women who have founded successful startups, they will meet women investors, women who have successful jobs in corporate roles, who work in the state of the art vehicle technology and in senior positions in corporate finance and technology.
They will learn what it takes to succeed in a typically male-dominated world – not through theory but by meeting women who have beat the odds and are setting new benchmarks for success.
A secondary goal is to create a network of support for our participants. In essence, students will come away with a circle of mentors that they can draw on for advice and support as they move through school and launch their careers.
