WORK HISTORY
Founder @Focus Group
London, GB
Women in Tech Offline is a casual, connection-first meetup series for women working in or around tech. It was created to offer a space for honest conversation, real community and zero networking pressure.Born out of a simple gap I noticed (and felt): I couldn\'t find a meetup that wasn\'t about business cards and job titles. So I created one.Each event is hosted in a relaxed setting - usually a great bar or rooftop - with no agenda, no awkward intros and no panel in sight. Just drinks and real conversations.Our first meetup launched during London Tech Week 2025. It\'s now a monthly series aimed at building genuine, offline connections in an increasingly online world.
