The Women Who Code Summit @
the IPIC Theater in New York at the Seaport District on the Hudson River is a 5-day experience from June 1-5, 2026.
Since 2011, Women Who Code has been where women in tech find their people, the mentors who push them forward, the peers who get it, and the network that opens doors. When the organization faced closure in 2024, we stepped in to keep that community intact. Because 250,000 leaders don’t just disappear, we deserve a home.
Now we’re bringing this community together for our Women Who Code Summit, June 1-5, 2026. This is for mid-to-senior technical leaders who are making architecture decisions, leading teams, and driving real impact. If you’re ready to level up your leadership, expand your network, and connect with peers who understand the challenges you’re facing, this is your summit.
