In recent years, research has shown an increase in women’s leadership across different sectors but despite incremental progress, women continue to experience barriers and fewer opportunities for advancement than men, particularly in the ICT sector. Among leadership positions in the ICT industry, only 24% are held by women and according to data by the World Economic Forum, less than a third of female students choose to study higher education courses in subjects like maths and engineering, resulting in women being under-represented in STEM-related fields in general.

Join the event, organised by the GSMA and the EQUALS global partnership for digital gender equality, to discuss concrete action steps to enable women’s full participation in the leadership of the digital economy.
