We work in an exciting and rapidly evolving industry that is urgently in need of more diverse talent, yet just 17% of UK tech workers are female. In a bid to bridge the gender gap, the Tech Talent Charter was created last year, expressly to encourage diversity in the digital industry.

Please join us and our passionate-about-all-people panel for a lively open discussion on how, together, we can we attract and skill-up more women and young people into the digital sector.
