I am so very honoured to be part of today celebrating the incredible achievements of Ada Lovelace, who is widely regarded as the first woman programmer (see http://www.agnesscott.edu/lriddle/WOMEN/love.htm). Ada is a fantastic 'tech girl' role model who paved the way for where we are today.
So that means today is also about celebrating women who now study or work in technology careers, women who are innovative, intelligent and chic!
Working in IT (or any similar names) is a great career for women, and one that I feel very lucky to be part of. So I would like to say Happy Ada Day to all of the fabulous women out there who challenge technology and the stereotypes every day to pave the way for the next generation of women!
There are just so many women who inspire me everyday so I send a huge hug out to you all :)
Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! :) and most of all, be proud!
