Wnet New York City Chapter Wrap-Up: Networking and RiseUp Panel
By Jean Crawford, Vice President, Marketing, Operations and Chief of Staff, Mastercard
A little spritz of rain didn’t stop the Wnet New York City Chapter from gathering on the evening of June 7 for a networking and panel event at Mastercard’s NYC Tech Hub. What was scheduled as a rooftop event was quickly relocated, but even the rainy wind could not blow aside the energy and excitement in the room from the group of more than 40 women who came together to connect and learn more about RiseUp.
With appetizers and drinks kicking it off, the ladies of Wnet quickly caught up before attending a panel hosted by Wnet Board Member and Wnet RiseUp Committee lead Jess Turner, who is responsible for Global Open Banking and API at Mastercard.
Jess was joined by RiseUp alumni Chilli Chilwan and Amber Dawkins, and Wnet Member Kathy Kmiotek of FortisPay, who was also part of the most recent RiseUp Cohort. RiseUp is a global program focused on helping women unlock the next steps in their careers, no matter what stage they are at, by providing the network, tools and techniques needed to help them strategically advance and level-up in the industry. More than 60% of RiseUp participants are women of color.
