How women make a difference in the way companies do business
How we can champion to have more women elected to corporate boards and other executive positions

Your life suddenly becomes the movie “I, Robot” and you’re racing away from white, humanoid-looking robots marching toward you, intent on destroying everyone and taking over the world. Run! Or, you have visions of Arnold Schwarzenegger chasing you or protecting you (take your pick), with one of those red eyes glowing brightly. As innovation in artificial intelligence continues its forward advancement, what is our destiny? If we believe Hollywood, it doesn’t look promising (unless all you envision is C3PO serving you breakfast in bed).
DAs women in technology, we often feel that we need to work harder and shout louder in order to be given half the recognition of our male peers. What if that weren't true? What if we could change the dynamic?
It's likely you don't think too much about your city's operations and infrastructure, except maybe when you are sitting in Boston traffic... Still, cities today - like many businesses - are mobilizing to transform their systems and processes to more effectively reach their goals and prepare for the future. “Smart City” initiatives focus on using emerging technologies and disruptive service models to meet citizens' rising expectations, attract new business, improve services delivery, and develop sustainably.
Join WITI and IDC Government Insights analyst, Ruthbea Yesner, as we explore how cities across the globe are embracing systemic strategies to transform their operations. Ruthbea will first provide an overview of smart city strategies, and then will delve more deeply into initiatives around public safety, transportation, and urban mobility. She'll highlight new programs and interesting innovation globally, including how the city of Boston is leveraging smart technologies for its own development.

You may remember the Rubik’s Cube craze in the Eighties, and if not, you may have noticed it’s made a comeback. But have you solved it?
It is said that only 1 in 10,000 people can figure it out unaided, but for the rest of us �" well, most just give up. Take heart, because Andrew Celentano will be your personal trainer in a Rubik’s Cube workout that is guaranteed to satisfy. After spending weeks reviewing different solutions, he has found one that is practically foolproof. In fact, he claims the moves are a lot like dancing or knitting.
To participate, bring a Rubik’s cube to the meeting (costs about $10 at Walmart and Target).
Now let’s talk numbers. Would you like to easily remember phone numbers, zip codes, conference call codes, birthdays, etc., and lock them in your memory forever? Andrew can show you how. Using a special technique, he’ll show you how he remembers this number:

It's no secret that we are producing huge amounts of data every day - from social media posts to GPS signals. It's estimated that 2.5 quintillion bytes of data is created daily - that's 2.5 followed by 18 zeros. Let's put that in perspective: If this amount of data were to be printed on paper and stacked, it would be high enough to go to the moon and back almost 330 times. It's also predicted that by 2020, about 1.7 megabytes of new information will be created every second for every human being on the planet.
This data deluge creates a variety of challenges for organizations large and small. It also raises a ton of questions. How do you manage the data? Where do you store it? How do you secure it? How do you harvest real-time information? And how do you harness data to drive business growth?
Join the WITI Boston team as we host a panel of experts to discuss challenges and best practices of operating in today's digital era.
Panelists:
- Josh Epstein, VP Global Marketing, Kaminario
- Christopher Stephenson, CEO, Topos Labs; Co-founder, OnWords; Director, iCorps Technologies
