Women in Tech: History, Challenges & Progress Toward Equality

Women in Tech

Honoring the Past, Shaping the Future

Recent International Women’s Day reminded us that women have been vital in the development of the IT industry since its earliest days, yet their contributions have often been overlooked. While progress is being made, the gender gap in technology remains a challenge.

Empowering the Next Generation

By Breaking Barriers in IT

From Ada Lovelace, the first computer programmer, to the pioneering ENIAC programmers and modern tech leaders, women have played a vital role in shaping the industry. However, stereotypes, workplace culture, and historical biases have created obstacles that persist today.

Encouraging diversity in tech requires addressing recruitment biases, promoting inclusion, and fostering leadership opportunities for women. By recognizing their contributions and implementing supportive policies, the industry can become a more equitable space for future innovators.
