What's next for Women In Pearl Hacks
After numerous attempts of developing various ideas we knew we wanted to create a web app geared towards the empowerment of women. However, we did not know exactly how we would build on this idea. In a moment of pure relaxation and jokes we realized we how amazing it was to connect with other women in tech. In an effort to meet as many as possible we decided we wanted to create a page similar to Humans Of New York. Except our app would include women of Pearl Hacks in an attempt to join together the community. Women of Pearl Hacks shows the highs and lows of women in tech as well as the advice women in tech would give to women in tech. It also offers help sites and inspirational quotes.
