Started in 2018 Tech She Can is a programme of free learning materials, for use by teachers or parents, to inspire both boys and girls about a future career in technology.

Why did Millennium Point want to get involved?
Our vision to inspire the next generation who will shape technology, industry, and the world of tomorrow aligns with the mission of Tech She Can. As it stands only 19% of tech workforce are women. Only through making digital and tech more accessible and inclusive can we unlock the try potential of the future workforce.
Joining up with Tech She Can will further raise the visibility and accessibility of digital and tech careers with women and girls across Birmingham and the West Midlands.
