Forty of
this country’s brightest, most innovative technologists and private and
public sector executives will be honored for their outstanding career
achievements at the National Women of Color Technology Awards
Conference, which will be held at the Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel in
Atlanta, Ga., October 28–30, 2004.
This three-day annual event,
now in its ninth year, is presented by the minority-owned talent
management and career development company Career Communications Group,
Inc. IBM Corporation is the title sponsor of the event, which has
attracted well over 5,000 participants in the past.
Among
the objectives of the conference organizers is to provide employers with
a unique opportunity to recognize successful women within their ranks
and send a clear message that there is room for many others who choose
to follow. "The next decade will see a widening of the gap between the
number of available engineering and technology jobs in this country and
the number of skilled workers in the pipeline to fill them," says Career
Communications Group CEO Tyrone D. Taborn. "Women and minorities, 68.5
percent of the new work force entrants in 2000, could help close this
gap. In today's competitive global marketplace, an environment that is
open and accepting of all those willing and able to work in critical,
high-skill positions is vital to the success of any organization."
The National Women of Color
Technology Awards Conference focuses on opening doors for women from
multicultural communities, leveling the field in American industry.
