  • 2026 celebrates 26 years of TechRochester’s Technology Woman of the Year Event. This is over two decades of incredible achievements from local women in many companies you know or may not know, from startups to major corporations in our community. We continue to amplify women’s achievements in STEM in our community with this year’s 2024 Technology Woman of the Year and Emerging Technology Woman of the Year Awards. These awards are honoring their contributions to the profession, recognizing their support of other women, and being stewards in their community.

  • Change brings excitement, anxiety, growth, but also new ways of exercising leadership. Our nominees are asserting their leadership by embracing change throughout their lives. We know you will find inspiration in how they lead change in each of their stories.

  • Success comes from those that support us along our journey. Sharing stories together, recognizing our diverse backgrounds and experiences, forming close connections brings perspective and makes us stronger together.


“Having an award type like this, I think it’s very useful for women to know that they can make a big impact.”
