ATLANTA, Sept. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Atlanta-based nonprofit Women in Technology's (WIT) annual Women of the Year Awards celebrates female visionaries of science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM), groundbreakers in business and remarkable leaders who make a difference in their workplace and community. The Women in Technology (WIT) leadership team is excited to announce T-Mobile as its Presenting Sponsor for the 2019 WIT Awards Annual Gala signature event that will take place Thursday, November 14, at the Georgia Aquarium.
The event is aligned with T-Mobile's commitment to supporting equality in the workplace – being recognized by organizations such as The Human Rights Campaign, Military Friendly, Disability:IN, and others, for being a top workplace for minority groups. The Un-carrier also has an employee network group, the Women's Leadership Network (WLN), which strives to inspire, develop, and advance the careers of women both for their employees and out in the community.
"T-Mobile is built on the idea that a more diverse employee base can better solve problems for our customers. It's why we believe that everyone – regardless of their race, sex, creed, gender identity, and sexual orientation – should have the same opportunities to grow and succeed. Just look at our female engineers and tech leaders, who are some of the brightest minds at the company innovating for the future!" said Tamara Hall, VP, Product & Technology at T-Mobile. "T-Mobile is proud to be the Presenting Sponsor for this year's Women of the Year Awards as another way to support the equality conversation and celebrate all of the amazing leaders being honored!"

We look forward to continuing our wonderful relationship with the T-Mobile team," said Penny Collins, WIT President and CEO.
