About us

#SmashTheStereotype At Next Tech Girls we inspire today's girls in education to become tomorrow's women in technology. In 2022 just 26% of people working in the UK tech industry were women. Next Tech Girls was set up to tackle this underrepresentation at the grassroots level. We partner with companies and educational institutions to deliver tech-focused events, workshops and work experience placements for teenage girls. By providing them with hands-on experience and insights into the opportunities available at a critical age, when studies show their interest tends to drop off, we are shaping their futures and the future of the tech industry. So far we’ve built a community of over 17,000 and given more than 9,000 girls and young women experience of a career in tech.
