One-of-a-kind opportunity for women interested in tech careers
Newnham College and the Wo+Men’s Leadership Centre at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School are proud to present the Women in Tech Challenge jointly with Microsoft, GSK and Amazon.
This challenge offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to work closely with senior executives from Microsoft, GSK and Amazon on real world challenges facing these companies. There will be two challenges, running simultaneously, as follows:
- Microsoft and GSK D3 (Data in Drug Development)
- Amazon Think Big Challenge
Microsoft, GSK and Amazon will share their high-impact training and leadership principles in these challenges to help female graduate students, post docs and research associates at the University of Cambridge build the skills necessary to be successful in tech careers.
