InnovateHer 2024
March 2 and 3
8:00 am Saturday to 6:45 pm Sunday

Interested in solving women's issues?

Want to learn how to code? All experience levels welcomed.

InnovateHer, a 36-hour hackathon celebrating marginalized gender and racial identities in technology is taking place on March 2nd and 3rd at Stewart Center! It is open to everyone - yes, men as well - in all stages of their coding journey. Organized by the Purdue Student Government in collaboration with 7 Purdue student organizations devoted to advancing women in STEM - Girls Who Code College Loops, Society of Woman Engineers (SWE), Women in Technology (WiT), Phi Sigma Rho, Computer Science Women's Network (CSWN), Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS), and Purdue Women in Science Program (WISP), InnovateHer's mission is to educate all on the beauty and importance of diversity and inclusion in STEM.

If you have no coding experience, don't worry! We will be organizing a series of technical workshops to familiarize you with all you will need to know to successfully complete your InnovateHer projects. But it's not all just code, code, code - we will also conduct workshops discussing the issue of diversity and inclusion in technology, providing a look into the struggles women and other marginalized communities face in male-dominated spaces like STEM, making InnovateHer a holistic experience benefiting any and all participating.

InnovateHer is sponsored by Wolfram Language and Wabash amongst others, and will also host officials from Meta, Oculus, Wal-Mart, and Microsoft in a series of panels and talks, which will be an immersive learning experience for all! Be prepared for more than just learning, though, fun is definitely included, with stargazing and s'mores breaks!

Purdue Engineering Frontiers Lecture Series: Venture Meets Mission

Tuesday, March 5 in ARMS Atrium
2:00 pm - 2:30 pm  Special Announcement with President Chiang
2:30 pm - 3:30 pm  Lecture: Venture Meets Mission with Arun Gupta
3:30 pm - 4:00 pm  Panel Discussion
4:00 pm - 4:30 pm  Book Signing  (Venture Meets Mission by Arun Gupta, now a national bestseller) - FREE BOOK WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!!

The world is facing dramatic geopolitical, environmental, and technological shifts.

Venture Meets Mission argues that if business, government, and society come together, rebuild trust, and collaborate, we have a generational opportunity to address societal challenges like climate change, cybersecurity, disease outbreaks, food insecurity, and education. The book explains, with hope and passion, how our existing entrepreneurial ecosystem, reconnected to the ideals of democracy, can be the foundation for a new mission-driven capitalism.

The good news is the components of this problem-solving ecosystem already exist- people, purpose, and profit-and can be joined together for world-changing impact. The starting point is rebuilding broken trust among business, government, and society. The authors draw on their leadership experience with Silicon Valley innovation, venture capital, and the highest levels of the federal government. The book tells engaging stories of successful entrepreneurs, with diverse perspectives and intersectional experiences, who combine mission and venture to solve critical societal problems. Venture Meets Mission seeks to inspire a generation of students, young professionals, and entrepreneurs to pursue mission-driven ventures that can make the world a better place. It also explains how forward-thinking government officials and policymakers can harness private sector entrepreneurship and innovation to solve society's problems.
