from these incredible women , from all over the world . I felt so alive ! It felt good to meet and connect with other female entrepreneurs like myself , working in technology . I knew we were largely outnumbered by men , as women represented less than 20 % of the tech industry . But what I didn ’ t know is that this gender gap was getting bigger every year , and this for the past 40 years !
It was a turning point for me . I felt a mix of emotions : I was in shock , I was angry , I was determined . I had to do something to change things . So , I decided to create Women in Tech . I imagined it as a catalyst for change , focusing on 4 core areas that are a call to action : education , business , social & digital inclusion and advocacy . A platform for real projects that would drive change .
