Sonali Basu Roy, Marketing Manager, Bulwark Technologies

I strongly believe in undertaking various measures to combat gender bias in technology. These measures include providing diversity training to hiring managers, establishing standardised & fair evaluation criteria, technical skill training to women once hired, and actively reaching out to diverse candidate pools amongst other measures. Technology can promote women’s equal rights and opportunities to learn, have their voices heard, access key services and expand their businesses. Technology also enables in women empowerment, so that men & women can participate as equal partners in all walks of life. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are increasingly used in hiring practices to analyse patterns of discrimination by organisations.
