The mission of the Women’s High Tech Coalition is to leverage the expertise and influence of women in the senior levels of both government and the private sector to affect the long-term development of public policy, in the areas of technology and technology-related industry.  

We are honored to have Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz as our Honorary National Chair, and Congresswomen Jo Ann Emerson and Zoe Lofgren as our Honorary Founding Chairs. 

The WHTC hosts periodic Happy Hours, breakfast meetings and semi-annual Luncheons in Washington, DC, as well as additional events in Silicon Valley, for policy-makers, senior staff and leaders from the private sector to network and exchange ideas.  We encourage your participation.   

Corporate sponsorships are central to the success of the Women’s High Tech Coalition and we value and seek out those companies which can understand the unique nature of our mission.  Our supporters benefit from networking opportunities with senior level public policymakers and staff, and sponsoring companies get exposure to leaders from the public and private sectors, leadership opportunities at our highly-acclaimed programs, exclusive time with featured keynote speakers, logo placement on WHTC collaterals and website, inclusion in all publicity outreach to the media and annual membership for select employees.
