WITcon 2019 – Wellington – 21 August 2019

What

VUWWIT (Victoria University of Wellington Women in Tech) exists to create a space for women and gender diverse voices in STEM. We connect students to industry by running networking events and sharing job and internship opportunities. We also organise social events to build our community.

WITcon is a one-day student-led tech conference that brings students and industry together to discuss social and technical topics relating to STEM (Science, Tech, Engineering, Maths).

This conference was designed to give something to everyone. Anyone working in or around tech will have something to gain from WITcon, whether they are a developer, human resources person, student, tech enthusiast, lecturer, biologist, manager, data scientist, engineer, chemist, gamer, or intern.

WITcon is a great opportunity to hear and learn from interesting speakers and panellists, meet other people in the community, and enjoy a yummy lunch.

Tip: the lunch break and end-of-event drinks are the best time for students to approach industry to discuss available internships and grad roles, and vice versa!

When and Where

9:30am – 3pm

Victoria University of Wellington,

NetHui 2019 – Wellington – 3 – 4 October 2019

What

NetHui brings everybody and anybody that wants to talk about the Internet together. It’s not a conference or a BarCamp, and speakers don’t talk at you all day. It is instead about discussing and exploring possibilities, ideas and challenges, together.

NetHui is made for the community, with the community. It’s designed by the people who want to go. InternetNZ wants to hear what it is that matters to you and what you want to talk about – and then we help to pull it all together.

NetHui is one of the most exciting and dynamic events for discussing our Internet in New Zealand. We would love to have you come and join us and join these conversations and explorations too.

The theme for NetHui 2019 is safety, inclusion and wellbeing on the open Internet.

When and Where

Thursday 3 October 2019
to Friday 4 October 2019
All Day

Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa,
Cable Street,
Te Aro,
Wellington

How Much

Earlybird (till 31 July) $70
Standard (after 31 July) $100
