Creating Connections, a leading platform for women in the field of cybersecurity, is gearing up for some exciting changes in the upcoming months. As we transition from winter to spring, the organization is also transitioning its focus from Women in Cybersecurity to Women in STEM, in honor of International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month.
The founder of Creating Connections, Sarah Jones, expressed her excitement for this new chapter. “It’s getting to be that time of year when I am ready for change. Winter into spring, flowers starting to push through, longer days. My favorite time of year,” she shared. “I love the celebrations that happen now as well. It’s exciting that we are coming upon International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month.”
The decision to broaden the platform’s focus to include women in all STEM fields was made with inclusivity in mind. Jones explained, “We are expanding our focus a bit to be more inclusive. You may have noticed the title. We are moving from Women in Cybersecurity toward embracing more women with Women in STEM.” The goal is to create a space where women from various STEM backgrounds can come together, share ideas, and inspire one another.
The rebranding of Creating Connections to Women in STEM represents a significant moment for the organization. By opening its doors to a wider circle of women, the platform hopes to connect with a larger audience and foster a sense of community among women in STEM fields. Jones encouraged women from all STEM disciplines to join the movement, saying, “To that end, I welcome your thoughts and ideas and I welcome a larger audience encompassing a wider circle of women that we can create connections with. Please join us as we become Women in STEM.”
As Creating Connections embarks on this new journey, Jones is optimistic about the opportunities that lie ahead. “Cheers to this metamorphosis and the change around us!” she exclaimed. With spring on the horizon and a fresh focus on women in STEM, Creating Connections is poised to make a lasting impact in the world of technology and innovation.
In conclusion, Creating Connections is embracing change and evolving to meet the needs of women in STEM fields. With a renewed focus on inclusivity and community building, the platform is set to empower women from all STEM disciplines and create meaningful connections that will drive progress and change in the industry. Cheers to the future of Women in STEM!
