The mission of the EdTech Women (ETW) is to create a networked community for women's leadership in education technology. ETW is comprised of business experts, technologists, designers, and educators working to support the development of women's leadership capacity and opportunity in education technology. ETW builds connections and skills that lead to stronger businesses, better products, and different schools. ETW also creates a community, united on the local, national, international, and digital levels, committed to support and innovation, driven to make change.
The mission is to increase the leadership capacity of women in education technology through inclusivity, visibility, and impact.
