She’s Geeky is primarily an unconference that brings different women in Science Technology Engineering and Math groups together in various cities across the country. In this spirit of collaboration we are working with several different women in tech groups to have a joint booth at SXSW. So far there are 4 groups along with She’s Geeky are committed - DevChix, LinuxChix, Anita Borg Institute & Women 2.0
Update – Astia, Women Who Tech, Digital Sistas and NCWIT have also joined in.
Update – CodeChix and GirlsInTech have joined the booth.
If you run a women in tech group group and want to be a part of the booth please contact us info@shesgeeky.org and we will get in touch with you with details.
Each group is chipping in a small amount of money so we can all afford to have a presence at the event together. Each group will have their logo on a banner, a logo, link and blurb in a “meta-brochure” that will cover all of the different groups in the booth & the ability to put out group specific brochure-ware. You don’t have to have anyone from your group in attendance at SXSW to participate. Contributing to the both does not cover your admission to the conference.

Oh I am so there. SXSWi is way less of a sausagefest then GDC, but I’d sure love to meet up with the old girls and talk some tech. Beer for anybody who wants to talk about database migration with me.
