Let’s close the Digital Gender Gap

This conference is organized by Platform Diversity in IT, a cooperation between female professionals from Cisco, IBM, Lenovo, Microsoft, Oracle and VHTO. The keynote speaker Dr. Davaki of the London School of Economics and Political Science will talk about her recent research paper commissioned by the European Parlament. You may furthermore look forward to the IT-awards for Young Female Professionals of the Year and discussions with policy makers about the importance of the campaign #NietGenoeg. And lots of girls looking for role models!

Female professionals from the above-mentioned companies will become the ‘buddy’ of a high-school-girl. Buddies model the girls what it is like to work in IT.

This conference is meant for women and men who want to work on closing the ‘Digital Gender Gap’:

  • in their own organization;
  • by doing research and/or other supporting activities;
  • by being a role model for young girls during speeddate-activities at high schools.
