Event information

Ever wondered what it takes to foster dignity & belonging in an engineering-product-design organization or what needs to change to build truly inclusive workplaces? Well, wonder no more.

Get inspired by people who have stepped up, found their voice, and propelled their careers in leadership roles in the software engineering industry. This time we will talk about Diversity and Inclusion in the tech space and why is it important.

We’re bringing together a stellar group of leaders:

🔹 Guramrit Singh – Sr. Manager, Product Design at Productboard

🔹 Richa Khanna – Senior Software Engineer at Slack

🔹 Nicole T. – Associate Director, Product at Muck Rack

Together with our host and People Operations Generalist - Lyndsey LaBontee, the panel will share their experience and learnings developing DEI+ initiatives while building and scaling successful EPD organizations and companies. They will cover the following important questions:

🔸 How to define inclusion in the tech space and why is it important?

🔸 What to do to foster dignity & belonging in our workplaces?

🔸 What needs to change to build truly inclusive workplaces?

🔸 As leaders, what does "being the change" look like?


If you've ever thought about starting your own business, or if you’re in a startup or established company and looking for tips and inspiration from people who know what they’re talking about, this Meetup is for you.

Come join us at Productboard’s Vancouver office on October 19th for a night of learning, ideas, and inspiration.

We won't be recording this event, so we'd love to have you join us in person.


We are looking forward to seeing you soon! 🙌
