UPCOMING EVENTS

Each year, AWT develops and maintains monthly programs designed to help our members grow both their technical and "soft" skills, while providing opportunities to network with each other and give back to the community. Our calendar includes Intelligent Conversations with IT Thought Leaders, philanthropic events, the Women in Tech Summit at InnoTech Austin, happy hours, and special "Members Only" events.

    More about our panel: 

    You’ll hear from an array of modern women on how to enhance your financial, mental and career clarity even if you’re currently experiencing burnout (as all of them have!). In order to get in balance, you have to first discover what you want out of life, then tune out the noise to start designing yours in synch with your goals and personal values. You’ll hear from a burned-out consultant turned wellness entrepreneur, a former school teacher turned real-estate mogul, a startup junkie turned contract employee-by-choice and a New York workaholic turned financial coach, about how they got clear on what they want so they could reposition their life moving forward, and how you can too.

    Speakers include:

    ·  Allegra Moet Brantly, Founder & CEO, Factora

    ·  Whitney Akchurian, Product Marketer, VRBO

    ·  Steph Douglass, Co-Founder, Open House Austin

    ·  Gloria Carmen Chan, Founder, Recalibrate


    Presented by ShipStation

    The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) deployed a new system, Frontera, in 2019, with support from the U.S. National Science Foundation, as the first phase of the new NSF "Towards a Leadership Class Computing Facility" program. At #5 in the world, Frontera is the fastest system at any university in the world.  This talk will provide a brief overview of the current landscape of systems at TACC, how they are used, and how usage is changing, with a quick review of the new system and the broader project that surrounds it. We will also touch on TACC's efforts to provide effective Education and Workforce Development services to industry partners, to better prepare students for careers in a host of different industries.  A tour of the data center will also be offered.
