Welcome, all! So how did #ABIdotLocal get started? cc Haila Rosario Robinson

#ABIdotLocal started as regional hubs for ABI. #ABIdotNYC which kicked off in 2014 is the first and the oldest community.

A1: WEIS is one of #ABIdotNYC's major annual events. This is where women in tech innovation and entrepreneurship link up. #ABIdotLocal

Q2: Where did the idea for WEIS come from? cc Tasha Geeta Shroff Rosario Robinson Haila

@abidotlocal Geeta Shroff Rosario Robinson Haila We wanted #WIT at large and big companies 2 connect. Also, innovation is happening at all levels. So women entrepreneurs are also pivotal

A5: I want the community to leave inspired! This is about connecting women and make allies in tech at the local level. #ABIdotLocal

A5: Not just that, I'm hoping attendees will be aware of their impact on the technology at all levels of their career.

A6: Beyond WEIS, there are events that happen year-round in the #ABIdotLocal communities. My advice: just jump in! local.anitaborg.org

Thanks to all those who were on the chat today Tasha Haila Jonathan Icasas Chelle Gray Anie Akpe! #ABIdotLocal #ABIdotNYC

I signed up to fight Nazis 73 years ago and I'll do it again if I have to. Hatred, bigotry, & fascism should have no place in this country.

What happened yesterday was radical terrorism, Donald J. Trump. Refusal to identify it, denounce it, & fight it makes one complicit in it.
