Testimonials
“
Over the years I have introduced several of my female friends and colleagues to Annie Chang and Women in Technology Japan. They have all had amazing experiences that have improved their lives and career. From mentoring junior members of the community to networking and education opportunities for senior members, the organization adds tremendous value and is a great resource.

This community helped me in building my self-confidence again. Meeting these amazing women, I was able to take support from them and improve myself, not just as a person but from work point of view as well. Talk sessions with other women leaders help to understand ideas of women empowerment in Japan from very different perspective.
