Pink Programming is a Swedish non-profit organization that promotes gender equality within the tech industry, with the stated goal of attracting more women and non-binary people into IT professions by hosting women-only IT events.[2][5][6]

Pink Programming was founded in 2015 by Vanja Tufvesson, Tone Pedersen and Vibece Tengroth[7] as a summer camp in Fyledalen [sv] titled "Pink Programming Weekend".[8] After its success,[9] the concept was then expanded to Sunday events for programming in Malmö.[10] Sigma became their first corporate sponsor in 2016,[11] with Volvo Trucks also joining later that same year.[12] They hosted a second camp in Äspö [sv] in 2016.[13] By 2017, the organization had expanded to also hold events in Stockholm and Gothenburg, had plans to expand to Oslo,[14][15] and were used events getting rapidly booked to capacity.[16][17] By 2018, they were arranging over 25 workshops per year.[18] By 2019, their events had attracted over 4,000 accumulated participants,[19][20] and began work towards DE&I courses for companies.[21] Tufvesson was awarded Female Founder of the Year by Dagens industri in 2019.[22] By 2025, their cumulative attendee count was over 10,000.[1]

Other corporate sponsors throughout the years include Axis Communications, Vattenfall, Unity,[21] and Massive Entertainment.[23] They also receive charitable subsidies from Malmö Municipality, Region Skåne, and the Swedish Gender Equality Agency.[1]

Pink Programming caters to participants of any skill level, and its volunteers are all employed or studying within IT.[24][25][26][27][28]
