In Response to COVID-19
A CASE STUDY
SOMETHING WE'VE LEARNED
AN UPDATE
Well, magic. And when women come together, incredible things happen.
On August 15th 2019, ToneDen hosted an evening for Women in Tech & Music with Girls in Tech LA, Women In Music, and BMI.
It was important for us to create a platform where women could be inspired and empowered, together. As Elisabeth Tuttass, Girls in Tech LA Board Member, puts it: "Attending networking events can sometimes seem transactional, especially to those of us who aren’t naturally extroverted, but the fact is, building a collective effort across all industries to improve the representation of women is crucial to the success of women because promoting gender diversity shouldn’t solely be placed on one woman or industry."
With ToneDen being a tech company that works primarily in music and live events, we wanted to create a hybrid networking event, where women from both sides of the Tech & Music communities could have the opportunity to share ideas, swap knowledge, and enjoy themselves.
We did, and they did, too! Just check out these photos by Courtney Coles:
It’s incredible to be in a room of empowering women, all searching to find new ways to make the realms of tech and music a more inclusive field. — Desarae Gabrielle, Software Engineer at ToneDen
Community is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of the Women in Tech & Music event. — Elisabeth Tuttass
Sharing experiences and finding commonalities only strengthens our communities and helps us grow beyond what has traditionally been the norm. The night was lifted by good conversation, friendly faces—both new and old—and a feeling of lightness that we could not have imagined beforehand. As the music performances began, we felt transported and transfixed as the acoustics of our beloved Bradbury Building reverberated the sounds of voices, beats, and violin like a cathedral.
Again, a huge thank you to all of our artists and vendor partners who donated their time and product for a good cause! We could not have done this without each of you. But most importantly, we are grateful to our guests. We talked with many of you and were so humbled by the breadth of experience, knowledge, and strength each of you possess. It would not have been nearly as magical without everyone who attended. Hope to see you all very soon!
