Celebrating the Women-to-Women Tech Ideas Dedicated to Women Competition: Bridging gaps, changing lives [WIE From Around the World]

One of the core pillars of this year’s 25th Anniversary Celebrations was the Women-to-Women (W-to-W) Tech Ideas Dedicated to Women competition, and the results were astounding. A new endeavor intended to celebrate the ingenuity of IEEE Members and their colleagues, especially due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women in particular, participants from all IEEE Societies and affinity groups were invited to present solutions that would tackle issues in these areas: smart childcare and education; elderly communication and senior safe living; medicine, mental health aid, and security for women; and sustainable environment solutions in rural and urban areas.
