Tech A Step Conference

Tech A Step Conference focuses on empowering youth to "take a step" towards careers in business and tech fields. We aim to accomplish this by bringing you as students from diverse academic backgrounds to connect with professionals in both development and business spheres. This opens up conversations between the two fields and creates a long-lasting impact on students’ lives.
