Over the years, Atlanta Tech Village's mission has evolved to also actively support women in their journey back to the office after the pandemic forced so many to transition to remote or fully leave in order to care for families.

To that end, we have introduced several initiatives aimed at assisting female founders, one of which is the establishment of a state-of-the-art Lactation Lounge in collaboration with The Mom Project. This facility will provide a comfortable and private space for parents within our community.

Join us and our panelists on the Lactation Lounge opening day for a discussion centered around the theme of "Returning to the Workforce." This discussion will delve into the challenges and triumphs of individuals who are re-entering the professional arena after periods of absence, whether due to maternity leave, extended caregiving responsibilities, or beyond.

The panel will be moderated by Julie Pierre, Director of Community and Growth, ATV, and will feature:

  • Allison Robinson, Founder and CEO of The Mom Project
  • Brianna Jackson, Senior People Operations Manager, Calendly
  • Mike Malakhov, Founder & CEO, Carpool Logistics
  • Katie Malakhov, VP of Professional Services - Americas, RELEX Solutions

Following the discussion, enjoy lunch and connect with the ATV community!
