Amid a shortage of women pursuing technology-related degrees, and technology careers in general, AWT is committed to recognizing California women who have chosen to enter the tech industry and are making great strides with achievements in key competencies such as collaboration, creativity, innovation, leadership, and transformation.

We carefully select amongst each year’s list of nominees 3 total winners from 2 categories – Rising Stars and Outstanding Executives.

Winners will be announced and recognized at the AWT Annual Recognition & Fundraising Gala event. This year’s gala is held on October 13, 2022 at the Irvine Marriott.
