Inspiring young women to invent great things, bringing data insights to transform businesses and a look at one developer’s focus on accessibility are just a few of the highlights from this week’s news around Microsoft.
On Monday, Microsoft
celebrated International Women’s Day through its
#MakeWhatsNext campaign aimed at
showing young women they can be among the next generation of inventors. The company announced a new program to help female inventors file for U.S. patents; it also offers free resources for girls to learn to code and meet female role models at
DigiGirlz events around the world.
The Microsoft
Facebook Channel marked
International Women’s Day by honoring women inventors of the past and supporting
female innovators, ground-breakers and game-changers yet to come.
