Testimonials

In their own words.

Sponsors, panelists, and attendees from past WAAC events on what made them come back.

Small-group conversation around a boardroom table at a WAAC gathering.
"TAO is doing incredibly powerful work in Oregon — a dynamic, nimble organization that responds rapidly to the needs of the Oregon tech community."
Melissa Evers·TAO Board Chair
"Sponsoring WAAC put our brand in front of the exact people we couldn't reach through traditional channels — senior technical women already inside the companies we wanted to partner with."
Past Premier Sponsor·Enterprise Software
"The most useful evening I've spent in tech in years. I left with three concrete introductions and a clearer view of my own next role."
Attendee — Principal Engineer·2024 cohort
"WAAC operates with the rigor of a private gathering and the warmth of a community event. Sponsors get real value without the awkwardness of feeling like a vendor."
Past Presenting Sponsor·Cloud Infrastructure
"I've spoken at dozens of women-in-tech events. The WAAC stage is one of the few that treats the technical track as the destination, not a stop on the way to management."
