The presence of women in technology is not just about equality—it’s about innovation, creativity, and building a more inclusive future. Women bring diverse perspectives that drive better decision-making and foster solutions that address a broader range of societal needs. Despite progress, women remain underrepresented in technology fields, facing challenges such as gender biases, limited access to opportunities, and the struggle for equal recognition.
This panel will explore why it is still crucial to have women in technology and why this conversation remains relevant today. From addressing the persistent gender gap to ensuring diverse representation in the creation of emerging technologies like AI and cybersecurity, the discussion will highlight the economic, social, and cultural benefits of gender inclusivity in tech.
By amplifying the voices of women and examining actionable steps toward equity, this panel seeks to inspire change and pave the way for a tech ecosystem where everyone can thrive.
