Webinar: Women in Tech

About this event

What will it take to get more women into tech careers?

On International Women’s Day, Digitalcity.brussels will host a webinar to get a conversation on the role of women in IT and how to close the gender gap.

A critical state

Increased participation of women in the tech sector will boost the economy and allow for their full participation in society. Although the digital sector is rapidly growing, creating hundreds of thousands of new jobs every year, the share of women in this sector is still under-estimated.

Diversity is also critical in the digital world. Companies perform better, hire better talent and retain / engage workers in a better way when they are incline to diversity and inclusion in their core business. Despite this, women remain widely underrepresented in IT roles.

  • How can we encourage women to study or follow a career in the web industry?
  • What concrete initiatives have been taken in Brussels/Belgium to encourage and empower women to play a more active role in the digital era?
  • What trends are shaping the future of Women in IT?
