Ambassadors run Technovation Girls in their local communities and support girls to tap into their potential as leaders and technology entrepreneurs.
There are a few different kinds of Ambassador opportunities—we'll help you find the one that fits your experience, needs, and time availability. All Ambassador opportunities require an application process.
- Chapter Ambassadors Chapter Ambassadors support 10+ teams at multiple sites in their community and are the main leaders at organizations who host events and regular meetings, and recruit girls and mentors and support them to complete the program. This is a 5 to 15-hour a week commitment
- Club Ambassadors support at least 5 teams, often at one site (like a school or after school program), recruit girls, and support them to complete the program. This is a 5-hour a week commitment.
