From underrepresented to unstoppable
Women are leaving their stamp on STEM despite microaggressions, biases, sexism and other hurdles. But there is still a long way to go. That’s why Udacity wants to give women the opportunity to learn in-demand tech skills, while providing a virtual conference to connect with female leaders in the industry.
Empowering women to succeed in STEM
Despite global discussion about gender diversity in STEM, women are still underrepresented, underpaid and often discriminated against in these industries. Udacity is here to change that by giving #WomenWhoFuture the opportunity to learn in-demand tech skills, while providing a platform to connect with female leaders in the industry.
Closing the gender gap at your company isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s also been proven to be better for your business outcomes. Forbes cited a Bloomberg report that found corporations with gender-balanced teams have a higher return on equity. Adding more women to your team means more innovation when it comes to shaping new products, technologies and initiatives.
