With more than 20,000 members, Women in Technology (WIT) is the largest non-profit organization committed to empowering and educating women and girls about opportunities in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) in Georgia. The WIT Awards Gala celebrates female visionaries of STEAM, groundbreakers in business and remarkable leaders who make a difference in their workplace and community.

This is Cox Enterprises’ fourth year as the VIP Sponsor of the Women of the Year Awards and Infor’s second year as the After Party Sponsor.

“Cox is proud to join in this celebration of current and future leaders in STEAM,” said Maury Wolfe, Vice President of Corporate Responsibility and Social impact at Cox Enterprises. “The work of Women In Technology aligns perfectly with Cox’s goal to empower 34 million people to live more prosperous lives by 2034, and we’re thrilled to celebrate these visionary women and girls as they continue to make a profound impact on our communities.”

“Infor is excited to partner with WIT in empowering women in STEAM careers from the classroom to the boardroom. At Infor, we are dedicated to creating and nurturing an inclusive and diverse culture where every employee can reach their full potential. We greatly value our partnership with WIT in ensuring women have access and opportunity in the technology field. We are proud to sponsor this year’s After Party as we join WIT in celebrating this year’s nominees and winners and their accomplishments in the field of technology,” said Glynis Lee, VP – Inclusion, Community, and HR Technology

In speaking about both organizations, Penny Collins, WIT President and CEO said, “The partnerships with both Cox Enterprises and Infor are impactful. Cox Enterprises is a company focused on being an employer of choice for women which speaks straight to our values. In addition, Infor is working to empower women at all levels. We are grateful to have both organizations as sponsors once more,” said Penny Collins, WIT President and CEO.

Women in Technology’s (WIT) 23rd Annual Women of the Year Awards will be held on October 8th at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia with more than 1,000 technologists in attendance.

The Women of the Year Awards in STEAM Gala gathers top Georgia companies at the forefront of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) industries to recognize and announce the Women of the Year – women who demonstrate leadership and vision in business and who make a difference in our community. Additionally, we celebrate a special high school girl as the Girl of The Year, a single mom with our Single Mother of The Year Award, and for the first time this year, a WIT College Club with our Campus Club of the Year Award.
