Tech Events by Rise London Tech Ladies

Rise London Tech Ladies' end-of-year Christmas party, this time with a Victorian theme at 16 Upper Grosvenor Street in Mayfair, the former home of Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel. It's a social evening for women across London's tech community rather than a talks night. Friday 4 December, 18:30 to 21:00. Tickets are £10 through Ticket Tailor and include a welcome drink, festive snacks and one raffle ticket. Dress code is Victorian glam or festive sparkle, optional. Sponsored by HKTDC (Hong Kong Trade Development Council). Why go: Rise runs one of London's longer-standing women-in-tech communities and a mentorship programme with 17 mentors this year, so this is where its members and mentors close the year. Go if you're already in that circle or want to be.

Rise, the London Tech Ladies community, hosts a panel at Salesforce's London office on how AI is being used to accelerate sustainability work — what is genuinely moving the needle and what is reporting theatre. Note: a Meetup RSVP alone is not enough — the organiser requires separate advance pre-registration of your details for Salesforce building security clearance, via the link in the Meetup event page. Attendees who have not pre-registered may be refused entry.
