Susan Wojcicki: Champion of Women Techmakers!

A photo of Susan Wojcicki, a prominent figure in the tech industry, wearing a dark red blouse and a necklace.

Susan Wojcicki, a pioneer in the tech industry and Google's first female CEO, has sadly passed away at the age of 56. Her legacy extends beyond her groundbreaking career achievements to her unwavering commitment to fostering a more inclusive and equitable workplace.

Wojcicki's advocacy for women in tech was a cornerstone of her leadership. As she once said during a Women Techmakers panel, "Let's try and help other women sponsor someone, say something nice about someone... and I think that's the way we can bring each other up." This sentiment, expressed in 2012 during the inaugural Women Techmakers panel, continues to inspire us today.

To honor her memory, watch this panel discussion featuring Susan Wojcicki, Angela Lai, Gayathri Rajan, Anna Patterson, and Megan Smith.
