      The Code Pub Berlin


      We are an international meet-up for underrepresented genders in the male-dominant IT world who want to learn more about IT and open for beginners as well as professionals. Our goal is empowering every woman and non-binary people in the tech industry by creating a platform where one can be inspired and inspire others. The Code Pub was created by Netlight in the spring of 2013 with the purpose of increasing the number of women in the IT industry. By lowering the threshold for getting started with programming and highlighting female role models within IT, we believe that we can make a difference. In order to have a bigger impact on the entire industry we work together with other cool IT companies and they will be hosting occasional The Code Pub meet-ups.

      Netlight Consulting GmbH

      Netlight is a genuine IT-consulting firm.

      We know that if we want to be part if the forefront of digitalization, we have to rely on people. That is why we have an organisation built on trust and responsibility, with a comprehensive personal development program that works without bosses. Ever wondered how that works?

      When our consultants work on-site with our local-only clients (no travelling needed #sustainability), they have all of Netlight’s combined (tech) knowledge available (more than 1800 Netlight across Europe), never afraid of turning to each other for input- because knowledge sharing, diverse experiences, equality and personal values are what working at Netlight is about.

      For us competence has no gender.

      SoundCloud

      SoundCloud is a leading global music platform that empowers artists and fans to connect and share through music. We are an artist-first company, providing artists with the tools, services, and resources needed to build and grow their careers. 

      Our commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable tech industry is reflected in our Women in Engineering (WINE) Diversity Resource Group (DRG). This group is dedicated to building a strong community and addressing equity gaps in the tech world. Through initiatives like mentorship, skill-building workshops, and networking events, WINE provides a supportive space for underrepresented genders to connect, grow, and thrive. We believe that by working together, we can create a more diverse and innovative future for the tech industry, and we are excited to collaborate with The Code Pub to further this mission.
