Who are the Future Stars of Tech?
As with all our events we run, we aim to highlight the importance of a gender diverse workforce. The technology industry is a prime example of how gender diversity is not prevailing. Women occupy just 16% of IT jobs in the UK and make up less than 14% of CIOs, less than 10% of tech CEOs and less than 5% of board directors at tech firms.
By identifying and promoting the industry’s top female career climbers, Future Stars of Tech presents a tomorrow where diversity is a positive force, not a challenge, in the world of technology. By boosting the visibility of female talent in the first eight years of their career, the initiative provides a platform for encouraging young people to follow in their footsteps while tackling the biggest issues holding back diversity in the technology industry through a series of inspiring keynotes and insightful panel discussions.
We have extended the deadline for nominations until February 26th, so please do put a colleague or peer forward using the following link.
