The aims of the association are: To provide a forum where women in the technology and communications industry can network for mutual benefit; The Association aims over the course of each year to hold a number of events of both relevance and interest to enable quality and valuable networking. *To provide a range of activities to increase the participation of women in the technology and communication industries; In addition to providing a networking opportunity, WIC events are designed to inspire women to progress in the technology and communication industries. *To Provide a forum to develop role models of success to participate in community and school based activities to change the image of the technology and communications industry to one which is attractive to women; This is an ongoing project which will be supported by WIC's WICked Woman Awards which recognise those who have made a significant contribution as a woman in the ICT industry. *To have fun! One of the most valuable aims of WIC is to ensure that members, interested associates, supporters and participants have fun. This has been and will continue to be achieved in all WIC events and activities. It is also an aim to ensure that all young women are able to assess their careers in the technology and communication forums in a true and objective fashion - with access to information, real life role models and case studies.
