TechGirls is an international summer exchange program designed to empower and inspire young women from around the world to pursue careers in science and technology. In 2024, the program will support 111 young women from 37 eligible countries/territories and 13+ U.S. peers in a dynamic four week U.S.- based experience with a 7-month mentoring program (including pre- and post-exchange). Since 2012, TechGirls has trained and mentored 653 teenage girls (ages 15-17). Initially the TechGirls program focused on countries of the Middle East and North Africa. In the summer of  2022, the TechGirls program expanded globally engaging a talented cadre of technology-minded young women from the United States and select countries in all six regions of world (Western Hemisphere, Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and Eurasia, East Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, and South and Central Asia). The core of theTechGirls program is a 24-day experience in the United States in partnership with Virginia Tech University. Participants will engage in an interactive technology and computer camp, then travel to one of the following cities (Austin, Chicago, Cincinnati, Denver, Detroit, or Seattle) for community and career exploration. The TechGirls programming yields a multiplier effect as participants return home to conduct community based projects with 7 months of mentorship.
