Fireside Chat With Roisin Parkes

​This is the long-awaited F Factor June meetup. In July lol.

​It's a social mixer to catch up with each other, make new connections and take a breath.

​We're joined for an intimate fireside chat with Roisin Parkes, Director of Engineering at Google, who's just coming down off her recent launch of a brand new Fitbit Smart Watch for kids (https://www.wired.com/story/fitbit-ace-lte-kids-smartwatch/) - to resoundingly positive reviews across the globe we may add. We'll be chatting to Roisin (pronounced Ro-Sheen) about her life growing up in Ireland, the pathway she took to become an engineer, her move to the other side of the world and all the ups and downs along the way to becoming a CTO.

​You are welcome to invite another woman-identifying or non-binary person who works in tech that you think would enjoy our meetup, they can just use the code FFACTOR +1. It's a nice way to introduce them to the community so they can experience it for themselves.

​We are being hosted at Creditor Watch's offices in Martin Place Sydney CBD. Big thanks to Creditor Watch!
