Did you know 2.2 billion people globally lack internet access, and the majority are women? This #DigitalDivide leaves millions behind in the digital revolution. Beyond Nature vs. Nurture: The myth that women are less inclined towards technology needs to be shattered. Uninspiring environments, a dominant male culture, and unrecognized contributions all play a role. The Consequences are Real: Limited opportunities: Women struggle to access education, jobs, and essential services online. Economic disadvantage: They miss out on the economic benefits of the digital economy. Reduced innovation: Lack of diversity hinders technological advancements. Bridging the Gap, Together: Invest in Girls' Education: Provide access to tech education and resources early on. Mentorship Programs: Connect young women with inspiring female tech professionals. Inclusive Workplaces: Promote diversity and inclusion in the tech sector. Affordable Technology: Make access to devices and internet connectivity more accessible.

This is how we got here. 🛣 Since the Breaking Barriers Report released in 2023, we knew the conversation had to continue, but more importantly, it had to progress. Women were open and candid with us. They told us personal stories about the challenges that the tech industry presented. The next goal was to understand what women want and need to overcome those challenges. We sent a survey out to a community of 5000. But we knew that solutionising isn't just women’s responsibility; it requires change that everyone can take ownership of. So, we brought together businesses and reviewed the survey results. The organisations in the room shared successful initiatives supporting what women want, as well as sharing gaps and discussing what more needs to be done. Combining these insights, we conducted our own research on businesses leading the way in supporting women in tech. By shining a light on their strategies, others can be inspired. That is what makes up the "What women in tech want" 2024 report and our journey to getting here. Get the report straight to your inbox on 2nd September ➡ https://bit.ly/46rhDzE. Don't miss out.
