What did we find when we sorted through the tweets from the Women 2.0 Awards?
A lot of fun stuff, including Dave McClure photobombing Megan Smith, Jocelyn Goldfein (former director of engineering at Facebook) recognizing a hero of hers and our Women 2.0 theme song captured by TechCrunch writer Josh Constine, to give you an idea.
The Women 2.0 Awards sparked hundreds of tweets. With 3.4M impressions, we certainly saw the social impact of the event. Below is a compilation of tweets that made us smile, laugh and captured some of the most inspirational moments of the night. Scroll below to see what else our honorees and attendees tweeted throughout the night.
Tonight, the #w2AWARDS! Can’t wait to celebrate some incredible leaders in our industry. Thx @women2 for what you do!
