Who We Are
#GALSNGEAR is a B-corp style initiative founded in 2015 that supports and advances those identifying as women in media, entertainment, and technology through training, mentorship, and community. We believe TEQUITY can be created by giving women Access to high-level professional networks, technical and leadership Training, and industry-wide Visibility. Essential to reaching our goals is a welcoming community that supports and encourages each member, regardless of age, race, birth gender, or national identity.
