Asian women in particular face a double-paned glass ceiling when it comes to career advancement. To help address these issues, SASE Pro hosts annual Women's Leadership Conferences catered specifically towards Asian women professionals.

The 2025 program is built on the foundation of our highly successful annual events since 2021, with a one-day virtual experience built to accommodate multiple time zones. Our virtual focus circles encourage meaningful conversations and build community through networking.



Asian Women in Tech Conference

Estimated Time of Year: Summer


In 2024, SASE Professional is holding the first Asian Women in Tech Conference in San Jose, California. With the increasing demand for technical skills in artificial intelligence, data science, and other fields of technology, feedback from Women's Leadership Conference participants led to the creation of this pilot conference. Keynotes and women-led workshops will include speakers that have backgrounds in technology and trainers working with companies that are focused on the development of technology.
