[Professor Sue Black OBE Keynote Speaker 🇺🇦 @Dr_Black]

Awesome , inspiring first talk from #techupwomen #alumna Samantha Larbi #TechUPReunion22 “Tech is for everybody” - “No one at school told me about working in tech” <- this needs to change 👍🏽

Really enjoyed hearing from #TechUP alumnae about what they are working on now. Brilliant reminder from @XYshakira that "You can do anything!" #TechUPReunion22 #TechUPWomen @TechUpWomen

[Beth Learns To Code @beth_code]

Excited to be in Durham today for #TechUPReunion22 #TechUPWomen

[Beth Learns To Code @beth_code]

Listening to #SkillsBootcamp graduate Samantha Larbi discussing Digital Exclusion and under-representation of diversity in tech. Could you make your tech spaces more inclusive? #TechUPReunion22 #TechUPOnline #TechUPWomen

[Laura Yarrow @laura_yarrow]

For those at the back: you don't need to compare making something "easy to use" with "your mum could use it". It's an outdated, lazy analogy to insinuate women/mums aren't technology literate. I'm a mum. I also have a computer science degree. And so do many, many others #uxdesign

Three years of this Twitter account = roughly three years since I started learning to code. Now I work as a software engineer, and I'm still learning! #WomenWhoCode #WomenInTech #MyTwitterAnniversary

[Stef Walter -- INACTIVE ACCOUNT @WalterStephanie]

Today is #GAAD2022, global accessibility awareness day. I was inspired by @MarieGuillaumet's quotes during her training and prepared 5 illustrations to help you understand and promote certain aspects of accessibility.

Thankyou to @accenture, Emma Turnbull @emma_louiseT and the Thinking Digital Team for my #WomenInTech bursary - I had a brilliant day and heard so many thought-provoking and inspiring talks. #TDC22 @ThinkingDigital

[The Thinking Digital Conference @ThinkingDigital]

Great to welcome all our @AccentureUK Bursary Programme today! Hope they all had a great time #TDC22

[Beth Learns To Code @beth_code]

And thanks to @herbkim for always checking on the food offering at the conference - the pizza from Fire and Dough at HWKR MRKT was amazing 🍕 @btrbrewco @ThinkingDigital #TDC22

Loved the robot research described and demonstrated by Maha Salem #TDC22

[Christian Payne @Documentally]

Maha Salem discussing anthropomorphising robots and how adding errors (lovable flaws) to robot behaviour can make them more fun and likeable. Even though people don’t totally trust the faulty robot they will still follow its orders. #TDC22
