It was great to see so many women featured on the panels and in the sessions. t was obvious that TechGroove Fest was a space that really cares about diversity, inside and out.
Professional Attendee
I attend many tech events. This was unlike any tech gathering I have attended. Amazing community, amazing content and I will certainly be attending next year.
Young Professional Attendee
Black students rarely see events like this that mesh a kickback vibe with an opportunity to get a job. I was super excited to be representing for Georgia Tech in the AUC.
Georgia Tech Undergrad
I was exposed to so much and really enjoyed the sessions. I can see how TechGroove Fest will be important for making connections to maximize my summer breaks.
Spelman College Freshman
I enjoyed the curated music and catered lunch break. A lot of events skip out on the food quality. The organizers didn’t cut any corners and it showed.
