This event is in place to change the perception of our industry, get inspired. They urge people to look beyond the perceived geek image of the sector and understand the wide range of jobs and career paths which are available.  Our jobs are far more about interacting with people, than the image of hacking in a darkened room. 

You can play a part to help instigate this change.  So if you work in IT or business related IT role function, come and hear truly inspiring role models who are leading the way and socialise with your peers.
