VISION & VALUES
Over time, it became clear that community alone was no longer enough.
Women were asking for:
-
Practical support navigating bias and stalled progression
-
Clearer pathways to growth, confidence, and influence
-
Resources they could use inside real workplaces, not just conversations about them
Girl Geek Network was built to meet those needs.
By bringing Girl Geek Dinners into Girl Geek Network as the free community layer, we can:
-
Keep the community accessible to everyone
-
Invest in better tools, content, and infrastructure
-
Offer optional paid support without restricting access to connection
This creates a sustainable model that protects the community long term.
