WICT’s Tech It Out Initiative was launched in 2009 with a goal to create strong women leaders in technology, while also raising awareness about the vast opportunities for women in cable technology.

The Tech It Out Conference is designed to bring together thought-leaders in technology from both inside and outside the cable industry. Tech It Out’s mission is to demystify technology for professionals at all levels and across multiple disciplines within an organization, highlight women technology leaders in an interactive and creative forum, enable attendees to learn about new and existing technologies driving innovation, and inspire participants to advance their career paths along the technology continuum.
