Is diversity the key to a brighter future in tech?
Exciting news - join Race in STEM (part of BioTalent) on 1st June, where we’ll be hosting a panel of insights and answers at the incredible Dublin Tech Summit, Europe’s fastest-growing tech festival. Technology permeates almost every aspect of modern life. It serves the needs of a diverse population, but how effective can it be if it’s not designed for difference?
While diverse teams yield better outcomes, representation in the tech workforce remains woefully unbalanced. 20,000 Black women are missing from the IT industry, (BCS & Coding Black Females), the gender wage gap is 16% (Women in Tech), and just 2.6% of boardroom-level positions are occupied by ethnic minorities (techUK).
Join us as we discuss: 🚀 Tech’s responsibility in shaping the future of diverse workplaces 🌎 Sustainable progress in the diversity space ✨ How Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging drives innovation 📲 The role of identity in the tech industry 💬 The perception of tech jobs as a barrier to entry 🤩 Inspiration for the next generation of tech workers
As the landscape transforms, our reliance on tech will only grow stronger. To build a healthy and equitable future, the unique experiences of a diverse humanity must be accounted for. Representation, action, and advocacy can make a difference. What can you do to help? Come along to our event and find out first-hand.
Our panel will include:
Steve Fuller - Host & Chair @ Race in STEM
Christine Noonan - Founder & CEO @ Klem
Klma Sharma - Tech Lead @ Hubspot
Mike Adebiyi - Enterprise Business Development Lead @ Google Cloud
Grace Hayes - Head of Product Delivery @ Mastercard
