Colleagues from Perficient recently had the pleasure of attending the Michigan Council of Women in Technology’s (MCWT) Peacock Gala. This prestigious event celebrates, promotes and mentors women in technology, and we were honored to be part of such an inspiring evening.
The MCWT Peacock Gala is more than just a celebration; it’s a testament to the power of community and collaboration in driving change. The event brought together industry leaders, innovators, and advocates who share a common goal: to inspire and nurture the next generation of female leaders in technology. Through scholarships, educational programs, mentoring, and networking opportunities, MCWT is making a significant impact on the lives of many women and girls, and we are proud to support their mission.
Erin Rushman, General Manager of Perficient’s Customer Experience and Digital Marketing practice, shared her thoughts on the event: “It was inspiring to see so many talented women being recognized for their achievements and to witness the strong community that MCWT has built. Events like these are crucial for fostering a supportive environment where women can thrive in the technology industry.”
Our participation in the Peacock Gala underscores Perficient’s commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion within the tech industry. We believe that diverse teams drive innovation and that supporting women in technology is essential for the growth and success of our industry. By collaborating with organizations like MCWT, we aim to create more opportunities for women to excel in technology roles and to lead the way in shaping the future of tech.
Our involvement with MCWT and events like the Peacock Gala is just one of the many ways we are working to make a difference.
