LEAP 2024, the world’s most attended technology event, will spotlight pioneering women in the global technology industry when the event’s third edition descends on Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Centre in the capital’s Malham district from March 4-7.
Organised by Tahaluf - the strategic joint venture between Informa PLC, the Events Investment Fund (EIF), and the Saudi Federation for Cybersecurity, Programming and Drones (SAFCSP), alongside the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) - LEAP 2024 will feature a dynamic ‘Women in Tech’ program packed with compelling content, investment, networking, and entrepreneurial mentorship opportunities, as well as a dedicated startup award.
The inclusivity-focused program aims to inspire more women – across Saudi Arabia and beyond - to engage with the technology industry and fuel wider diversity initiatives. In-line with far-reaching equality programs being rolled out across the Kingdom, the ‘Women in Tech’ focus at LEAP 2024 comes as female participation in the event maintains an upward trajectory.
The LEAP 2024 ‘Women in Tech’ program will boast its own horizontal content track with an unrivalled speaker line-up of former government ministers, C-suite executives from the world’s most transformative tech disruptors, ethics advisors, and venture capitalists.
Among the line-up on the platform will be Sahar Albanarna of IMPACTIQUE Bahrain, the founder of ‘Women4Impact’ initiative, who believes technology can be leveraged to create positive impact globally.
