Welcome to Carolina Girl Geek Dinners! We are inspired by the original Girl Geek Dinners and our mission is to create an informal platform where technical girls of all ages can network and learn from others alike. This is a group of women in IT who are interested in networking with other women in IT. The idea is to get a group of women who work in technology together to discuss their experiences and exchange ideas in a comfortable, non working environment.
Girl Geek Dinners are organized all over the world and we are the 5th group in the United States! The events are typically held in restaurants, bars or other common meeting areas and there is usually a speaker who talks for a short while on a chosen subject for the evening followed by networking and good times! Our events will be held in Charlotte, NC.
Are YOU a girl geek?
Girl Geek: A female who has an interest in technology, particularly computing. Not necessarily technically minded.

Jennifer Coates forwarded your email to me. I own a web development firm located in Charlotte, NC. My background includes almost 10 years as a developer. I’m interested in the idea of a local chapter of Girl Geeks. I’ve been hearing about it via DevChix. Let’s catch up!
Great job on getting Microsoft as a supporter. We’re an Open Source company but we’re not a fan of OS vs. Bill arguments. Our argument is more about control vs. no control. We support community initiatives, much like this idea, through code contribution, support and consulting. Let’s talk more about your goals and Girl Geeks to see if we’re a match.
