They will discuss how companies can effectively address these barriers in order to better attract and retain the diverse talent that will drive future innovation and provide practical resources to implement these strategies.

In addition to the NCWIT presentation, Greyzone Mentoring will have professionals on hand to help job seekers polish their elevator pitches before meeting employers, Built in Colorado will provide information about how to tap into our communities' robust startup scene, and Groundwork will be presenting employers with their system for interactive and role-playing interview strategies to improve the hiring process.
