Join CarGurus and She+ Geeks Out at CarGurus’ office space in Cambridge for a fun night of learning, networking, eating, and drinking! You'll walk away with more knowledge and new connections. Drinks and light appetizers will be served!
You'll hear from three fabulous women+ speaking for 10 minutes on what they're geeking out about and then we'll have fun and geeky raffle prizes. Food and drink provided, yay!
This event is a woman-focused event that intends an inclusive definition of women. We are welcoming and respectful of women, including trans women and those who are nonbinary, gender non-conforming, and anyone who identifies as a woman in a way that is significant to them. We also welcome allies who are committed to creating environments that are supportive of people who are typically underrepresented in the workplace and beyond.
Please make sure to read our code of conduct before coming to our event!
All proceeds from this event will be donated to a non-profit that we love, Science Club for Girls. You can read more about Science Club for Girls and its mission here.
What even is a 'geek', and why do we call ourselves that? Thank you for asking! Read here to learn more about She+ Geeks Out and why we love to call ourselves geeks.
