Apple to Feature Applications Built by Women All Through March

Apple to Feature Applications Built by Women All Through March

To celebrate International Women's Day, Apple will recognize female developers, musicians, artists, photographers, coders & entrepreneurs in the App Store for the whole month of March.

At select Apple Stores far and wide, visitors can attend more than 60 sessions in the "Made By Women" series. The March 17 session will be an App Lab with Hillary Yip, for example, the 14-year-old fellow co-founder & CEO of MinorMyna, a learning language platform. Yip's session will be at Apple Causeway Bay in Hong Kong.

Session locations also include select stores in Singapore, Kyoto, London, Milan, Paris, Dubai, San Francisco, Chicago, New York and Los Angeles.

By partnering with the nonprofit Girls Who Code, Apple is working on its pledge to education & to supporting coding opportunities for young women.  

The Everyone Can Code educational programs will make it easier for 90,000 young girls and Girls Who Code Club facilitators to become familiar with Apple's coding language, Swift. A huge number of applications have been built with Swift, according to Apple.

Apple said it supports educational opportunities for students of all ages and foundations, and advocates girls' rights  to access the same learning opportunities as their male counterparts.

"Women have earned the chance to have our thoughts shape the future," Lisa Jackson, Apple's VP of environment, policy and social initiatives, said in the post. "We're excited to help Girls Who Code as they empower girls to be the developers & tech trend-setters of tomorrow."

A year ago, Apple announced an Entrepreneur Camp for women in acknowledgment of the challenges women face in the field of innovation.
