Sorting the women from the girls, this event brings together two important groups, the Brighton Girl Geeks and Women in Media . Their first soirée as one, these networks show the growing strength of an industry that is thought to be dominated by men. Think again misguided souls, the ladies have landed and will socialise, talk business and share ideas at this relaxed event.
