LONDON/OXFORD/UK – 10.03.2020 – TechPixies has been named a WINNER for Digital Course of the Year in the inaugural DigitalWomen Awards.

The DigitalWomen Awards in association with Natwest Business and the Federation of Small Businesses celebrate women working in digital and digital business from their amazing community and beyond who are doing the most incredible work in the digital space they operate in, those who are making the right moves and going beyond and above what is usually expected. The awards are open to any woman working in digital and entrepreneurship and entrants go through a rigorous judging process by their esteemed panel.

Lucy Hall Director of Avviso Media Ltd and Founder of DigitalWomen Said:

“We are very excited to bring the DigitalWomen awards to the female digital and business community and beyond, these awards are the perfect opportunity to showcase and raise profiles of women doing great work.”

Joy Foster, Founder of TechPixies Said:

“We never started TechPixies in order to win awards, we simply wanted to help 12 women return to work following a career break five years ago. I’m thrilled that by raising investment and moving our course online, we’ve been able to scale the business and transform lives of hundreds of women across the UK – breaking down tech barriers and helping women from all walks of life return to work, change careers or start a business so that they can do fulfilling, stimulating work they love while at the same time contributing financially to their families and the British economy.”
