#GGDRoma4 — sustainability according to girl geeks
The Girl Geek Dinners were founded on the 16th August 2005 as a result of one girl geek who got annoyed and frustrated about being one of the only females attending technical events. She was tired of being assumed to be marketing, tired of constantly having to prove herself and decided that she just wanted a change and to be treated just the same as any other geek out there, gender and age aside. After all to be geeky is to be intelligent, have passion for a subject and to know that subject in depth. It’s not at all about being better than others, or about gender, race, religion or anything else. Those things just detract from the real fun stuff, the technology, the innovation and the spread of new ideas.
Girl Geek Dinner #4 in Rome this coming Friday (5th March 2010, h 7.00 PM @ Antù, Via Libetta 15/C) will be about sustainability: renewable energy, recycling and reusing.
Speakers for #ggdroma4 are:
- Marianna Pasquali (EtikaSolar — also main sponsor for the event)
- Simona Falasca (GreenMe)
- Monica Gardellini (Suitecase Magazine)
- Marica Fachin (TiRiciclo-Tetra Pak)
- Viviana Valentini (Legambiente)
