Count me in!

25 April 2016 20:00-22:00Biograf Spegeln

What's it all about?

Malmö Startups, together with Biograf Spegeln and Pink Programming are inviting you to the screening of CODE Documentary.

CODE documentary exposes the dearth of American female and minority software engineers and explores the reasons for this gender gap. CODE raises the question: what would society gain from having more women and minorities code?

Besides showing the film we have invited 4 people to participate in a panel discussion about the question raised in the film.

Please bring your Co-Founder, your developer, your friend, your roommate - whoever is curious about the topic! But seats are limited, so sign up fast to be sure to get a spot.

Who are we?

We are a bright and shining bunch of people gathered trough our interest and passion for Startups and Innovation. We consist of all the incredible initiatives in the region, entrepreneurs and students who want to contribute to Øresund growing as a kickass place to grow as a person and your business!
