How does an engineer at Bell Laboratories in the 1980’s wind
up as a champion of women in science in Europe? Hear the story
of one female computer scientist as she navigated through some
of America’s most esteemed technology companies, built a
career in Silicon Valley and then had to start over after
moving to Prague when her husband became U.S. Ambassador to
the Czech Republic. Plenty of career hacks will be provided as
we look forward to a lively session peppered with entertaining
stories and serious advice.<br>
<br>
Tamar Newberger is a computer scientist who has held executive
positions and leadership roles in companies such as AT&T;,
Novell, SCO and Catbird, a Silicon-Valley start-up focused on
cloud security which was sold in 2017. For the past three
years, Ms. Newberger lived in Prague where her husband served
as the United States Ambassador to the Czech Republic. Tamar
is active in promoting technology and science to young women
considering careers in these fields, both in the USA and
abroad.<br>
<br>
Prior to relocating to Prague, Tamar was on the board of The
Young Women’s Leadership Charter School, Chicago’s only
all-girls public school, whose mission is to help lower-income
Chicago young women prepare for college and beyond. YWLCS has
a particular emphasis on STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering and Mathematics) curriculum. She is also on the
board of a women’s foundation in Chicago and was on the
Technology Advisory Committee for Obama For America.<br>

Women Accelerators (formerly de la Femme) is a Massachusetts
organization passionate about promoting the advancement of
women and bridging the gender gap. This can be seen in the
wage gap and under-representation of women in senior-level
positions and the boardroom, from Corporate 100 to startups.
Our mission is to provide a centralized network and community
where career-focused women can access resources tailored
toward their career goals. We provide resources and
information to help women efficiently navigate work
opportunities and to provide a supportive environment that
will nurture female leaders. Our vision is to generate a
community of like-minded, high-achieving women, who help each
other to succeed in the workplace.<br>
