Why do we need more women in tech and what we can do about it?

​Join us for the next event in Lisbon!

​We are thrilled to invite you to our upcoming event on the crucial topic of "Why do we need more women in tech and what we can do about it?" 

​For Portugal and Europe due to the underrepresentation of women in the tech sector, evident through a significant gender gap in employment and leadership positions. Startling statistics from Eurostat reveal that in 2020, only 17.9% of ICT specialists in Portugal were women, emphasizing the urgency of achieving greater gender balance.

​By addressing this gender disparity and promoting the inclusion of more women in tech, we aim to harness the benefits that diverse perspectives, ideas, and problem-solving approaches bring to the industry. Encouraging women to pursue careers in technology can effectively address the existing skills gap in the industry. 

​Date: June 15th 

​Time: 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

​Location:  Springer Nature Office, R. Castilho 77, 1070-050 Lisboa
