There is a new initiative led by pioneer vlogger Ryanne Hodson to get more women speaking at Tech conferences. Though there are several women who are equally as successful as men in the industry, female participants are often overlooked.

In response to the demand for female speakers, Hodson has started a wiki to list names from different backgrounds, including: Media Makers; Programmers and Entrepreneurs. This list should act as a resource for those planning to hold conferences in the future.
