Girls in Tech Santa Cruz is proud to present:

Leveraging Today's Technologies to Publish Your Book

Last year 764,448 titles were produced by self-publishers and so-called microniche publishers - up an astonishing 181 percent from the previous year - and just 288,355 titles were published through traditional publishers (down from 289,729 the year before). Book publishing is simply becoming self-publishing.

Girls in Tech



Girls in Tech is a social network enterprise focused on the engagement, education and empowerment of like-minded, professional, intelligent and influential women in technology. As young women with the capacity to inspire, we made it our personal desire and passion to create and sustain an organization that focuses on the collaboration, promotion, growth and success of women in the technology sector.

Created in February of 2007, ‘Girls in Tech’ (GIT) was founded by Adriana Gascoigne. GIT and was born out of a need to provide a place for women to cultivate ideas around their careers and business concepts involving technology.

Girls in Tech aims to offer a variety of resources and tools for women to supplement and further enhance their professional careers and aspirations in technology. Some of these resources include, educational workshops and lectures, networking functions, round table discussions, conferences, social engagements, and recruitment events.
