<P STYLE="line-height: 1.7; margin: 0px 0px 24px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Innovation is more than something that occurs within small startups. Established companies are now installing Innovation Centers of their own to encourage creativity. At a time when input from women technologists is crucial to success, we have organized a conference to answer this need. In the GHC-NY for 2016 we have combined relevant skills and subjects for an event in which entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship, research and products of women technologists will facilitate an exchange to foster personal and professional growth. To further the optimum progress of women's scientific communities we have paid special attention to inclusivity. Based on our preparation, the breakout sessions will meet our goals. Please join us as we bring together women involved in computation and our male allies from all over the unique technological cosmopolitan area of New York City.</P>
