The Grace Hopper Celebration, a gathering of women technologists sponsored by AnitaB.org brings together some of the top women in technology to exchange ideas.
SheTek is a start up that encourages women in all areas of their lives. Not only do we strive to help women professionally but we also try to connect and bring women together. We truly understand the importance of women joining forces and learning from one another. There is something so powerful, motivating and even empowering when women gather in a room. Ideas, journeys, life stories, are all exchanged and shared with one another creating a flow of electricity that can almost be touched. A gathering of women is a celebration. A celebration of strength, achievements and overall comradery. This is exactly what happened during The Grace Hopper Celebration, the largest gathering of women technologist. Sponsored by AnitaB.org and partner ACM, this conference brought together some of the top women in technology. Key note speakers included Padmasree Warrior, Jessica Matthews, within many others. Now, can you imagine the energy in this room?!?!
There are many programs to get women more involved in technology. It may seem that women are catching up to men in the IT field. In reality, this isn’t the case.
If you were asked, “Is the gender gap in technology getting better?” what would you say? If you said that women are getting more jobs now and advancing in this industry, your answer wouldn’t be wrong – but it wouldn’t be correct, either. With all of the recent programs that aim to get women more involved in technology, it may seem that women are catching up to men in the tech industry. In reality, this isn’t the case. A recent New York Times article by Cade Metz says that the gender gap won’t close for another century “if current trends hold.” These results are shocking. Computers have only been around for 70 years, and women were there programming and working on them at the start. But all that has changed. It will now take 100 years to close the current gender gap in computer science research. That’s unacceptable!
Women have been an integral part of the IT field from the start, something that should not be forgotten. Let’s look at some of the inspirational women of tech.
Women have been an integral part of the IT field from its inception. The part they’ve played in the growth of the industry should not be forgotten. To ensure they are highlighted and remembered, we’ve been featuring some of the amazing women that have led the way and inspired others to pursue this ever growing and expanding field. Let’s take a closer look as some of these inspirational women of tech.
Women Continue To Make Tech History. We have gathered a list of some of these inspiring women who are making history as women, inventors, and tech superstars.

We’ve gathered a list of some of these inspiring women who continue to make history – as women, inventors, and tech superstars.
“Retention Strategies to Build a Gender Diverse IT Workforce”, by Gartner analysts Debra Logan and Carol Rozwell, recommends companies assess and resolve the “female flight risk.”
A recent study by global research and advisory firm, Gartner, shows that women leave technology jobs at “twice the rate of their male counterparts”. By the time they reach the midpoint of their careers, 56% have dropped out. With more than half leaving, it’s easy to see why there are fewer women at senior levels. This is creating a dismal scenario for the future of growth at executive levels because so few women are even in computer science.
Only 18% of computer science graduates are women, so when more than half of them leave, a very small percentage of women are left in the field of technology. How can these rates be changed? What steps can companies take to increase the rate of retention for a more diverse workforce?
To stop the female flight from the tech field will take cooperation from companies and all employees. Today we will be focusing on pay equity and IT department cultures. We look at why it's important to close the pay gap and retain strong females it technology.
Last week we talked about “Retention Strategies to Build a Gender Diverse IT Workforce,” a recent Gartner study that had shocking but not surprising results. The research, led by Gartner analysts Debra Logan and Carol Rozwell, revealed that women in technology leave tech jobs at twice the rate of men. In fact, 56% of women leave tech before reaching the midpoint of their careers. What steps can we take to reduce these numbers? Logan and Rozwell have four suggestions that every company should follow to increase their retention – and productivity. We discussed two of these solutions in our previous blog “How Do We Stop the Female Flight Risk?” Today will be focusing on pay equity and IT department cultures.
Chaya Pamula, SheTek & PamTen CEO, shares her insights into the growth of women in the FinTech field and how to continue to increase the percentages.
Recently I had the opportunity to share my experiences with a group of women in the finance field. To complete my talk, it required that I do some research on the field and get more information specifically about FinTech. The world of technology for financial and banking institutions, or FinTech, is on an amazing growth path. What makes this boom so amazing is not just the wealth of opportunities presented, but the possibilities of leveling the playing field in the finance industry and providing access to a vastly underrepresented group – women.
