Building more inclusive tech ecosystems from the university to the workplace.

Our industry and academic partners collaborate with us to deliver programs and funding that propel women into degrees and careers in tech. Together, we are creating a future where the people who create our technology reflect the diversity of the human experience, and where the technology we create, together, helps to shape a better world for us all.
