WTWT: Bridging the Innovation Gap
Emerging technologies like 5G, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain and others, will undoubtedly revolutionize our economy by changing the way we communicate, connect, and do business. However, part of our ability to innovate, drive commercialization, and support competition rests with talent.
While the majority of employees in core ICT roles like software developers, network engineers, systems architects and others are men, women make up approximately half of the Canadian labour force, and come equipped with competencies and skills that can drive this sector and our digital economy forward.
During this session we will discuss the importance of diversity and inclusion, and look at how boosting the representation of women in the Canadian digital economy is key to our success.
