“We are committed to advancing the cause of gender equality in the technology industry. While the summit celebrates and empowers women in tech, we firmly believe that achieving true equality requires the active participation and support of people from all backgrounds, cultures, and genders. Our program is designed to be inclusive, diverse, and representative of the global tech community. We take pride in the fact that our summit programme is gender-balanced, with 50% of our speakers being men who share our vision of a more equitable tech industry”, said Ayumi Moore Aoki, Founder and CEO Women in Tech Global.
