A little about TechInColour: Last year I started a community group and a got a grant to start this community project called TechInColour where we create events focused on tech and giving platform to people of colour to share their voice and showcase their skills. I started this group because I felt that there is a lack of representation of folks of colour and other communities in tech companies, tech conferences and tech community.
