At Tech Nation, we don’t need an excuse to shine a light on the fantastic work being done by women in UK tech. However, International Women’s Day provides a welcome opportunity to highlight those who should be recognised and celebrated.

As Entrepreneur Engagement Manager for London, Eoin Marsh regularly encounters new faces working in the industry – from female founders to data scientists, digital designers, and other women-in-tech.

While it’s not possible to include them all, based on their inspiring work being carried out in London’s tech sector, Eoin has chosen to highlight the 10 women below on Twitter. Why not give them the retweet they deserve?

After that, see who made our other regional lists on International Women’s Day:

• Scotland
• Yorkshire
• North West
• Wales
• East of England
• South West
• South East
• Northern Ireland

10 inspiring women powering tech in London

#London is an incredible city region, one that clearly has too many incredible women working in its tech sector to name in one go. But I’m still taking the opportunity to highlight 10 women doing excellent work for #InternationalWomensDay. Thread below #IWD
