#DevelopHer22 | Women in Tech

Introduction 

Tech needs women. To attract and retain them, tech culture needs to change. The proportion of women working in tech is now smaller, at 34%, than it was in 1984, at 36%. Today, women hold just 31% of software engineering roles in Singapore.  

In this session, we will explore the upcoming trends in technology, from AI to the Metaverse, and how your perspective matters in shaping those trends.  

Half the Sky and Accenture, invite you to join the discussion on how a diverse world needs tech made by diverse people.  

Are you ready to be part of the change?
