The technology sector is booming, particularly in a global pandemic where technology needs have exploded. Despite this remarkable growth, women are unfortunately still too little present in this vital sector of our economy.
The technology sector is booming, particularly in a global pandemic where technology needs have exploded. Despite this remarkable growth, women are unfortunately still too little present in this vital sector of our economy.
This raises relevant questions: what are the barriers to entry? What are the strategies in place to favour the retention and progression of women to senior management positions? What is the role of governments and businesses in fostering the development and rise of women to strategic positions?
Hear from the next generation of technology leaders on the evolution and prospects of this cutting-edge sector through a panel of four dynamic young entrepreneurs who are on the rise.
This forum initiated by Marie Josée Lamothe, IWF member and President of Tandem International, will explore the significant contribution of women in the world of technology, the challenges and opportunities to which they are confronted with, and the potential solutions to help young entrepreneurs chart their own path.
The event, moderated by the international business reporter Sandrine Rastello, will bring together these up-and-coming technology entrepreneurship stars:
• Azadeh Dastmalchi, CEO & Co-Founder of VitalTracer, G20 YEA Canadian Delegate and Top 25 Women of Influence in Canada
•. Chloe Ryan, CEO, and Founder of Acrylic Robotics (Tech-Robotics)
•. Mariia Zhuldybina, co-founder and CEO of TRAQC (Hard Tech)
• Angela Wong, co-founder of Remote Optical (Health Tech)
