FAQ's
How do the different time zones work for a virtual-first global event?
The conference follows a "Follow the Sun" model, with live sessions scheduled to accommodate participants in Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Keynote speeches are often repeated or made available as high-quality recordings immediately after the live broadcast for those who missed them. Networking rooms remain open 24/7 during the four days of the event, allowing you to connect with peers whenever you are online.
Can I attend the in-person satellite events with a standard virtual ticket?
A standard VIP ticket typically includes virtual access only, while certain in-person satellite events may require a separate registration or an Executive pass. You should check the specific "Satellite Hub" section of the website to see which physical locations require an additional RSVP. Many local hubs are hosted by partner companies like Google or Microsoft and have limited capacity, so early booking is highly recommended.
What kind of technical requirements are needed to access the global platform?
You will need a stable internet connection and a modern web browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari to access the full interactive features. The platform includes video networking and virtual booths, so a working webcam and microphone are essential for the best experience. A mobile app is also available for download, which allows you to listen to talks and manage your schedule while on the go.
Are there any group discounts available for corporate teams?
Yes, the WomenTech Network offers specialized packages for teams of 5 or more, which often include additional branding opportunities for the company. Large organizations can use the code "WTGCGROUP" at checkout or contact the sales team for custom invoices and "Partner" status. Many companies use these tickets as part of their annual diversity and inclusion training budget for their engineering and leadership teams.
How long will the recordings of the sessions be available after the event?
Standard VIP ticket holders usually have access to the session recordings for 30 days following the conclusion of the conference. Executive and Founding members receive extended access for up to 12 months, allowing them to revisit the technical workshops at their own pace. All recordings are indexed by topic and speaker, making it easy to search for specific insights or technical tutorials months later.
