When it comes to hacking, the stereotype is predominantly male. But fact of the matter is that Portland has some awesome women hackers. And that’s why it’s great to see them getting together. To hack.

Introducing Women Who Hack.

Our goal is to support local women hackers (and aspiring hackers) by providing a safe, welcoming environment in which you can connect with and learn from each other.

This will be a casual get together for women who want to hack on projects with or around other women. All types of projects (software and hardware), languages, platforms and experience levels are welcome.

We’re kid-friendly, too, so feel free to bring your children with you.

Sounds awesome, right? Well, get ready to be part of that awesomeness. The first gathering of Woman Who Hack will be held this Sunday, January 8, from noon until 5:00 at Collective Agency.

For more information, visit Women Who Hack, follow @WomenWhoHack on Twitter, or sign up for the Women Who Hack group.
