The GeoIgnite Conference and our sponsors are proud to present the inaugural Diversity in Leadership Summit (DILS).

It is our vision that GeoIgnite will spur the grassroots of a more diverse ecosystem where diversity of thinking and knowledge will ignite innovation and better outcomes for us all.

The DILS is the flagship forum for of geo professionals of all ages and stages in their careers to come and gain valuable insights into how to advance their career or business venture. This year’s theme will be “Creating Diversity in Geospatial Ecosystem”.

One industry where the need for diverse representation and hiring is apparent is Geospatial Technology Industry. Geospatial Technology impacts and is used by us every almost hour of every day. Diversity isn't just important for the Geospatial tech itself—it's important for the people who make and use technology.

The DILS will provide a platform for leaders, allies and the next generation of leaders to:

· Discuss challenges and opportunities surrounding diversity in leadership

· Be inspired by influential and successful role models

· Explore new paths to leadership

· Network with like-minded professionals
