2 What is Super-Ada? Super-Ada is a campaign organized by Nice Tuesday, aiming at getting more girls and young women in the IT industry. Less than 23 % of IT students and employees are women (a study by TIVIA, 2014). The campaign's name is inspired by the world's first programmer, Ada Lovelace. Ada Lovelace by Wikipedia

The network aims at providing opportunities for professional development of women in the IT industry.
