TREASURE VALLEY WOMEN IN TECH
Our Mission
Treasure Valley Women in Tech is focused on the professional and personal development of women in southwest Idaho. Our members are role models in the community who are committed to equipping women to lead fulfilling, productive careers in heterogeneous, technology focused fields. We accomplish this through long-lasting mentorship relationships, research-based outreach programs and advocacy, and by fostering an environment that develops the next generation of diverse innovators and changemakers.
-
We believe that women bring unique and valued gifts to the technology industry and the communities in which they operate.
-
We believe that communities in which women hold leadership positions benefit from a different set of skills and imaginative perspectives. Female leaders bring structural and cultural differences to the table, which drive effective solutions. These communities and corporations are stronger and more vibrant due to these contributions.
-
We believe in providing opportunities for women to come together in a meaningful way, utilize their skills, and pour into the next generation of visionaries.
Brittany Giudici, President & Founder
Brittany’s foray in the technology industry began as a new college grad, when she was hired by Apple, Inc. to do marketing and communications for the iPhone 3GS in Cupertino, CA on Apple’s Worldwide Sales team. From there, her career took her all over the world with tech companies focused on online retail, human and AI-generated language translation technology, and multi-national enterprise software.
Currently, Brittany is the Director of Communications for Microsoft, owning and driving the communications for its Cybersecurity division, led by Microsoft’s executive vice president and technology luminary, Charlie Bell.
Brittany founded Treasure Valley Women in Tech in 2023 on the belief that southwest Idaho is full of women who bring unique and valued gifts to the technology industry and the communities in which they operate. However, many of these women work in a hybrid or fully remote environment from their homes, lacking opportunities to network with their peers. Further, this creates an unfortunate, but natural barrier, removing organic and holistic opportunities for these leaders to mentor the next generation of young women forging their own path in technology.
Treasure Valley Women in Tech was founded on the belief that you can’t become something if you don’t see it. Representation matters. Our nonprofit provides women in this community the opportunity to come together in meaningful ways, utilize their skills, and pour into the next generation of visionaries and changemakers.
