While women represent almost half of the total workforce, only c.33% of tech roles are held by them. An even more imbalanced scenario occurs in Europe, where only 17% of women are ICT Specialists or working in Tech. Efforts to rectify the situation have been earnest, yet there is still a long way to go. According to Womentech network, at the current pace of change, it will take more than 70 000 days until the economic gender gap is closed.
