Women in Information Technology Leadership Roundtable Mixer

The CIO Council of Hawaii and TEKsystems invite you to join us for our third pau hana celebrating “Women in Information Technology and Leadership.”

Building on the excitement of our past events, we are pleased to welcome women IT professionals of all levels to a new, more engaging format. Instead of a panel, this mixer will feature small roundtable discussions where each of our local women leaders will facilitate a topic at their table. They will share personal experiences, lessons learned, and advice, while also encouraging open conversation with attendees.

Every 15 minutes, participants will rotate to a new table, creating opportunities to hear diverse perspectives, gain actionable insights, and connect more personally with multiple leaders throughout the evening.

Our goal is to foster deeper dialogue, build stronger connections, and continue supporting women at every stage of their careers—while creating pathways for the next generation of women leaders in IT.
