Retail Women in Tech

Retail Women in Tech (RWIT) is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to driving parity and strengthening mobility within retail and technology.

Founded on principles of radical inclusion and advocacy, RWIT unites and empowers women and allies to build today’s workforce through community, mentorship, visibility, and opportunity. RWIT was born from a simple truth: women power retail’s workforce and purchasing decisions, yet remain underrepresented in leadership roles across all sectors of our industry.
