Tackling the gender gap in IT: Why does tech need more women?

Tech, especially IT, has a gender issue. Even though women have come a long way in terms of the roles they are involved in, they are still under-represented and often, undervalued. Gender inequality is a pressing issue that has far-reaching societal, economic, and cultural consequences. Clearly it is “touching a nerve” in terms of what women need to face in a male-dominated world. So, what is holding women back in IT? On this episode, we are hosting Kathryn Abbas, Cato Networks’ Channel Account Manager. We will talk about the gender gap in the IT industry and how to encourage decision makers to have a much-needed conversation to improve the situation.
