Winnie Karanja to moderate education panel at Wisconsin Leadership Summit

0

We hear a lot these days about “the new normal.” What does that look like in school — especially for students of color? We are excited to announce that nonprofit tech education entrepreneur Winnie Karanja will lead a discussion on that questions on Tuesday, October 6, the second day of the 2020 Wisconsin Leadership Summit.

Winnie is the Founder and Executive Director of Maydm, a Dane County based non-profit focused on equipping girls and students of color with the technical skills and experiences to become innovators and technology leaders. In 2019, Winnie was named one of Forbes Magazine’s 30 under 30 Social Entrepreneurs. With a background in education, technology and workforce development, Winnie has worked on national data projects, has led economic development initiatives, and is committed to equipping youth in utilizing and understanding the power of technology to fuel their dreams.

The Summit this year is all online, so you can attend from the comfort of your home or office. It will feature 25 sessions over five days from October 5-9, all for just $79 (or less if you work for a nonprofit organization or government agency, or if you’re a student).
