Web2day 2017 (French)

I modestly hijacked Web2day's design panel to question the lack of gender diversity at French tech events. My presentation goes over projects I've worked on, viewed from the perspective of the women I was lucky to collaborate with. Many thanks to Genevieve Hoffman, Jane Friedhoff, and Ellery Royston. Presentation starts at 19:23.
