The MongoDB Diversity Scholarship program is an initiative that supports members of underrepresented groups in technology by providing complimentary access to the MongoDB World developer conference, on-demand access to MongoDB University for free certification preparation, and mentorship via an exclusive discussion group. This year's cohort of scholars had opportunities to interact with company leadership at a luncheon and share their experiences in a public panel discussion. Scholars from diverse backgrounds shared their personal stories, inspirations, and advice for pursuing STEM fields. They highlighted the impact of MongoDB World on their learning and career paths, citing the conference as a source of inspiration, networking opportunities, and skills development. The program aims to foster diversity, inclusion, and community engagement in the tech industry by empowering underrepresented groups to pursue careers in technology.
