To close the gender gap in tech, progress must go beyond good intentions and focus on measurable actions. Companies should foster inclusive cultures, set clear diversity targets, and invest in upskilling women for leadership roles. Using tech and analytics to track progress, identify biases, and ensure fair hiring and promotion processes is essential. Collaborating with academia and industry partners can drive systemic change. By embedding equity into corporate strategies and holding leadership accountable, the tech industry can close the gender gap faster. Bold action today will help break barriers, champion inclusion, and make diversity the norm, ultimately fuelling innovation.
