Who We Are

Science. Technology. Engineering. Art. Math.

The IF/THEN STEAM Squad is a group of individuals and organizations from the IF/THEN coalition and STEAM community that are changing the culture around STEM to be a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive space.

Join the Squad this summer at San Diego Comic-Con International and the Comic-Con Museum! We will be hosting a STEAM Fair July 21-23 from 10:30am to 1:30pm at the Comic-Con Museum - do science, create art, learn new things, and be inspired. Free tickets are available to youth groups. Reach out to reserve yours today! See you there!

IF/THEN® seeks to further advance women in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) by empowering current innovators and inspiring the next generation of pioneers. Rooted in a firm belief that there is no better time to highlight positive and successful female professional role models, IF/THEN® is designed to activate a culture shift among young girls to open their eyes to STEM careers by: (1) funding and elevating women in STEM as role models, (2) convening cross-sector partners in entertainment, fashion, sports, business and academia to illuminate the importance of STEM everywhere, and (3) inspiring girls with better portrayals of women in STEM through media and learning experiences to pique their interest in STEM careers.

Thank you to our 2023 Coalition Partners!
