Women may still be a minority in the technology industry but they are establishing strong support networks to stay connected. An event at London’s recent Sci-Fi film festival was aimed at women and produced by women – with the aim of supporting female comic book artists and creators.

Similar organisations also host events designed to encourage women in technology.
