THIS EVENT IS SPONSORED BY:
“When it was time to return to in-person programming in September 2022 we knew we were doing so in a new corporate landscape...We knew our mission mattered to the thousands of mentors that work with our students. So, we made WITS a carrot for our corporations. Don’t bring people to the office to fiddle with Excel all day. Bring them to the office to engage with each other, with their broader community. That is what WITS has always been – but it is more relevant now than ever.”
