HER Tech Connect 2026

Join us at the University of Calgary Downtown Campus, in the Main Event Centre & Atrium, for an inspiring in-person event centered around the relationships and communities that help us move forward.

This event is primarily intended for women who are studying technology, beginning their careers in tech, or looking to re-enter the industry.

This year’s theme, The Power of Connection, explores how the connections we make can shape our careers, strengthen our sense of belonging, introduce us to new communities, and open doors to opportunities we may not have discovered otherwise.

Whether you’re a university student exploring the possibilities of a career in tech, preparing to enter the industry, or looking to grow your professional network, HER Tech Connect is a space to connect with opportunity, community, belonging, and your future.
