This was the first Girl Geek Dinner event we held in Leeds and I gave a short talk basically encouraging the women to put themselves forward. I memorably also stood on the gaffa tape holding down all the various leads and ended up stuck to the floor for most of the talk! The slides are a bit thin because much of the talk didn't really need them, read the blog post though.
