Do you know our next Women of the Year in STEAM?

Annually, we host our Women of the Year in STEAM Awards Gala to highlight and celebrate female visionaries, ground-breakers in business and remarkable leaders who make a difference in our STEAM community.  

Our Women of the Year in STEAM not only embrace their personal ability to influence meaningful change but influence others to embrace their own. These women are trailblazers within their community and catalysts for change who have made significant contributions as innovators and business leaders. They are women with commitment and passion for serving others while making an impact and leading with purpose and integrity. They are service leaders and role models. These women have the courage and are working to change the landscape in which women serve. 

We do what we do because we feel strongly about the cause and understand the value of it,” Dr. Sonal Dekhane, 2020 Woman of the Year for STEAM Education winner tells us. “Earning the award validates our efforts and brings awareness. That’s why awards like these are valuable. It acknowledges that there is a need to support women in technology, that this kind of work is important and that it needs to be done.
