The night will also include a keynote address by Barclays' Partnerships and Programs Director Mariquit Corcoran and we'll end the evening with an opportunity for you to network with your fellow women in tech over cocktails and light food.
The event will take place on Monday July 16th from 6pm to 8pm at Rise New York, located at 43 W. 23rd Street, New York, NY 10010.

Founded in 2012, Peloton brought top talent together in its Silicon Alley headquarters to create a new concept in fitness. In their words, "We loved cycling but had a hard time finding a workout that consistently fit our schedules, and our at-home workouts never felt quite up to par. So, we set out to create a world-class indoor cycling studio experience on your time, and in the comfort of your own home."
