Sponsored by：Migo
At Migo, we are creating a movement to change the status quo to enable our consumers in emerging markets to watch entertainment and education videos offline – anytime, anywhere without buffering. Our content distribution network (CDN) is 100x cheaper to deploy than existing telco infrastructure resulting in ultra-low cost for data. This allows us to build an innovative digital gateway through a smartphone to transform the digital lives of 3 billion rising consumers for the modern internet experiences and consumption of data at an affordable price.
How Migo works:
Event Host：Women in IoT

延續今年國際婦女節主軸：女性領導力，物聯網新創 Migo 產品總監 Irene Hwang 將分享過去 6 年在 Migo 身為年輕女性領導者的經驗及心路歷程，以及如何帶領一個由23人組成的跨國、跨部門團隊，同時管理橫跨產品設計、市場研究、數據分析和研發部門的同事。
Migo 目前正在招募 Senior Data Analyst 與 Manufacturing Program Manager，對加入外資新創企業、對協助打造專為全球新興市場的消費者數位內容平台有興趣者。歡迎參加，Migo HR 將會於現場交流。
◎ 什麼樣的人適合這場講座？
- 想轉戰物聯網產業的科技新鮮人
- 未來想成為職場領導人的妳
- 對加入跨國新創及職涯發展有興趣的妳
- 想與其他優秀科技女力交流的妳
◎ 活動簡介
妳好。我叫Irene，今年29歲。目前是 Migo 產品總監，帶領一個由23人組成的跨國跨部門團隊，團隊囊括產品設計、市場研究、數據分析和研發部門。在 Women in IoT 的這場演講，我將談談過去 6 年在 Migo 身為年輕女性的領導經驗及心路歷程。
在答應這場演講前，我的腦子裡總有一個聲音說：妳知道什麼？在科技業，還有很多其他的前輩，年齡比妳長、懂得比妳多、能力也比妳強，他們可以分享的東西一定比妳還多。但是，當我發現那是我心裡很小的聲音阻止我這樣做時，我更加確定這是我應該做的事情，因為我相信很多年輕女生跟我有一樣的掙扎。那小小的聲音成為了我這次演講的靈感，這樣的不安全感是我過去在工作、會議中所感受到的，常常需要領導平均比我大5歲的同事，而我一直期許自己跨出舒適圈。
在這場演講中，我將會分享這一路下來我理解到：我的年齡並不會讓我的專業觀點比較沒有價值或是比較不應該受到重視，因為年輕並不代表我能力較弱或是無法成為一位偉大的領導者；在這場演講中，我也會分享當有人以妳的年齡來低估妳的專業能力的時候，可以運用什麼樣的方法來解決。
