The TechWomen100 Awards are now open – who will you nominate?

We’re thrilled to announce the eighth edition of our WeAreTechWomen TechWomen100 awards, dedicated to recognising and championing the accomplishments of outstanding women in tech who are poised to be the trailblazers of tomorrow.

This year, we’re honouring 100 exceptional women in tech from all industries, spanning all positions and levels below director.

While we applaud the rising stars among inspirational women, it’s also crucial to extend our sincere gratitude to everyone actively driving change within the industry. This includes individuals of all genders, organisations, companies, and external supporters. We celebrate those who are contributing to a more inclusive and equitable tech landscape.

Nominations are now open across our six categories, and we eagerly await the opportunity to spotlight the remarkable talent shaping the future of tech.

Why YOU should nominate

Every year, we continue to be astounded by the incredible talent emerging from the tech industry, spanning across every sector. From women who are excelling in Healthtech and reshaping women’s health to ground-breaking advancements in AI, the spectrum of achievements is truly awe-inspiring. And we’ve witnessed the invaluable support of male allies who have tirelessly championed women in the workplace.

But perhaps most importantly, the TechWomen100 initiative has significantly raised awareness about the pervasive issue of underrepresentation of women in tech. We not only acknowledge this problem but also celebrate those who are actively working to address it.

Looking forward, we’ve set our sights on an ambitious goal: to celebrate, reward, and champion 1000 female technologists by 2030. Join us in highlighting the incredible contributions women are making to the tech sector by submitting your nominations today. Don’t delay—nominations close on July 8th.

Event Details

Set on the tranquil banks of the River Thames, Henley’s historic Greenlands campus offers the perfect backdrop for a day of reflection, connection, and growth. Surrounded by sweeping lawns, mature trees, and the calming river, it’s a place that sparks creativity, clarity, and fresh perspective.

Designed for early to mid-career women across industries who want practical tools they can use immediately, this one-day retreat follows the Kinspace KIN framework – Know, Inspire, Navigate – guiding you to:

Know yourself deeply: uncover your core values, beliefs, and strengths
Inspire your next chapter: break free from cultural and inherited beliefs that no longer serve you
Navigate forward with confidence: own your voice and create a plan you can action immediately.

This is not just a feel-good day. It’s sustainable learning – you will leave with your own action and implementation plan tailored to your life, so you can apply what you’ve learned immediately and keep building momentum long after the retreat.

In the afternoon, slow down and reconnect with your senses in a mindful pressed flower card crafting, writing to self and picture workshop. We’ll ask a few questions ahead of time so we can pair you by goals and stage, and tailor examples to your context. Then, step outdoors for a unique partner reflection in nature – partnering with both the landscape and each other to inspire deeper insight and grounded action.

To help you stay accountable and supported, you’ll have the option to join three monthly follow-up group sessions (at a separate price) designed to check in on your progress, troubleshoot challenges, and keep you moving towards your goals.

This is a confidential and supportive space with limited seats to ensure meaningful connection and participation.

Time: 9:00 AM -4:30 PMT
