Today, I'd like to share my admiration for the limitless potential of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. These subjects are essential pillars upon which we build our world—from the groundbreaking innovations that transform our lives to the everyday tools that make our daily tasks a breeze. At BairesDev, we believe in STEM education. At the heart of it lies the belief that talent can come from anywhere. It's an understanding that ignites young minds, fostering curiosity and nurturing their innate ability to explore, discover, and create. It's about opening doors to endless possibilities and empowering individuals to make a positive impact in the world. That's why we've launched our Giveback Program, which annually donates funds to a group of NGOs dedicated to fostering STEM education worldwide. Through this initiative, we empower individuals from all walks of life to pursue their STEM aspirations and positively impact society. On this day dedicated to STEM, I invite you to join me in celebrating the pioneers, educators, and passionate individuals nurturing the next generation of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics leaders. Let us foster an environment where curiosity thrives and where the seeds of STEM dreams take root and flourish. Because if they do flourish, there are no limits to what we can achieve. #STEMDay #STEMEducation #FutureInnovators #STEMLeaders

Product Lead | 15+ Years in Full-Stack Development & Management | EMBA | SXSW Speaker | Award-Winning AI Developer | AI Consultant for VCs & Startups
Over the past year technologies in the Central Valley have faced many challenges. The collapse of Bitwise and industry wide tech layoffs sent ripples through our community, testing our resilience and unity. But, as we've always done, we are turning obstacles into opportunities. Tomorrow at SXSW Edu I have the privilege to share about our remarkable Central Valley community. As I said before, this community is strong, and was never about a single company. Amidst adversity, we've witnessed remarkable achievements that deserve the spotlight. Phillip J. Patiño School of Entrepreneurship continues to nurture young innovators, shaping the future of technology and business. CART continues to stand as a beacon of excellence, merging high school education with real-world applications in science, engineering, and technology. Quiq Labs llc. | Heroes for Hire launching Repo! a new curriculum library looking to help school districts around the nation. Fresno State and UC Merced remain pillars of higher education, driving research, innovation, and community engagement in entrepreneurship and AgTech. Bay Valley Tech - Free Code Academy Apprenticeship Program has stepped into the Fresno community to continue to help bridge the gap between aspiring tech professionals and Silicon Valley's dynamic ecosystem. The creation of Code Rising, a pre-apprenticeship non-profit, marks another significant milestone in our commitment to cultivating a skilled workforce ready to tackle the challenges of tomorrow. Fresno Regional Workforce Development Board continues to step in and support many displaced technologists find new jobs. Entrepreneurs around our community continue to start boutique agencies and develop products. I've witnessed the expansion of many under the radar software companies like the MBT4 Schools. As I prepare to share our story at the SXSW conference tomorrow, I recognize that many of us in the community are still suffering. However, I am constantly reminded of the power of community and perseverance through small individual wins. I also want to thank the Kapor Center for their unwaivering support and commitment to closing equity gaps. Let's continue to celebrate our wins and support each other. Together, we are building a brighter community. #CentralValley #CommunityResilience #SXSW #TechEducation https://lnkd.in/gxUrg7wB

International Women’s Day: Empowering Women in Tech Despite advancements, women remain underrepresented in the tech industry. Here's why encouraging women into tech is crucial and how apprenticeships can serve as a catalyst for their success: Closing the Gender Gap: Only 26% of computing jobs are held by women, according to the National Center for Women & Information Technology, and in 2022/23 only 23% of students enrolled to computer science programs were female. Unlocking Innovation: Research shows that companies with more women in leadership positions achieve higher financial returns. Embracing gender diversity fuels creativity and problem-solving and drives tech innovation. Building Skills and Confidence: Apprenticeships provide women with practical experience and professional development opportunities. Apprenticeship programs empower women to build essential skills and gain confidence in their abilities. Feel free to reach out for more information around the various initiatives QA has to support Women In Tech, including our Female Leadership Digital Technology Specialist master’s degree, aimed at developing the next generation of female leaders in tech! #apprenticeships #womenintech #internationalwomensday2024
