HYPE Night is our annual celebration designed to (a) generate awareness of our mission to fortify the tech pipeline for women and girls of color, (b) celebrate women, girls, and organizations who are making significant achievements fostering equity in STEM education, and (c) raise money for HYPE while having a little fun. HYPE Night 2023 is a live game-show style event where our students will test their trivia knowledge against local Atlanta professionals (think- “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?”). This is a hybrid experience where our viewers can attend as either part of the live studio audience or view it virtually at home. A VIP Networking Happy Hour will precede the game show with tickets available for purchase by individuals, or as a benefit to sponsorship. HYPE Night will also include the HYPE Future of Tech Scholarship Award Announcement, in which 4 $2500 scholarships will be awarded to local high school junior and senior girls to further their pursuit of STEM post-secondary degree opportunities. Both virtual and in-person attendees can receive custom gift boxes courtesy of our sponsors and local vendors, as well as purchase raffle tickets for our drawings throughout the night.
