Armed with years of experience across the identity sector, our Country Ambassadors are the official representatives of Women in Identity in their home countries. They are responsible for recruiting members, identifying potential local partners, organising Meet Ups and identifying potential speakers for WiD and industry events.
We recognise that the strongest networks are founded on an active grassroots community. And we are incredibly grateful to:

We asked why they chose to become a WiD Ambassador.
Over the last 7 ½ years; I have come to view identity as the glue that pulls everything together, the backbone that supports an organisation and its teams to do what they need to do. I became an Ambassador because I am committed to bringing diversity of thought and experience through a socially connected setting in order to challenge and disrupt the way we solve problems in the whole domain of Identity Access Management. Women in Identity seemed like the obvious place to facilitate that.
Tamara – New Zealand
Simply to help create a forum for women to have a stronger voice and play a more active part in shaping digital technologies.
Mallika – Australia
