  • Abstract
    Connect. Inspire. Lead. The 2015 Tech Women Leadership Summit held on 25 June 2015, in Guadalajara, Mexico, at the Intel Zapopan Site encouraged women to do just that. Hosted for the first time by IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) and the Women at Intel Network affinity groups, the summit connected women leaders from the local technology industry, inspired them with ideas about leadership, and provided them with professional development skills to help them lead from their current positions. The summit, the first of its kind for women leaders in technology, focused on leadership, career development, and work-life balance. We spoke to three particiopants, and we´re happy to share with you their stories and their advice on how to find success in the workplace no matter your age or experience level.
