In 2019, Women Techmakers celebrated International Women's Day by hosting its sixth annual summit series, which included 19 summits and 305 meetups across 87 countries, aiming to support and recognize women in the tech industry. Partnering with the Actions on Google team, the events featured technical workshops where attendees learned to develop Actions for the Google Assistant, gaining hands-on experience with building conversational interactions using Dialogflow as a natural language processor. Participants engaged in Codelab sessions where they implemented features such as deep linking, personalized responses, and rich media interactions. The initiative highlighted the importance of voice applications in modern technology and fostered a sense of community and learning among women in tech.
