And women hold only 10% of senior management positions in the sector.<\/p><p>Overall, it is estimated that only 19% of women work in the technology sector, and only 15% of start-ups in Europe are founded or co-founded by women.<\/p><p>Yet at this year&#8217;s <strong>Web Summit,<\/strong> Europe&#8217;s biggest technology event, women outnumbered men &#8211; 50.5% of attendees &#8211; for the first time in the event&#8217;s ten-year history.<\/p><p>Clearly, women&#8217;s interest in the technology sector is high, but the industry seems to be lagging behind others in its efforts to recruit, promote and showcase women.<\/p><p>Some companies, however, are determined to reverse the trend. This is the case at Depop, the second-hand fashion app, where 57% of the management team are women. Remo Gettini, Director of Technology, has worked with a training organisation to recruit promising female engineers. More than a third of its graduates are women, many of whom have gone on to work for brands such as Deloitte, Google, the BBC and the Financial Times.<\/p><p>Sarah Luxford, <strong>digital data and technology partner at executive search specialists GatenbySanderson<\/strong>, believes a wider, systematic shift is needed, to tackle persistent attitudes that a woman&#8217;s place is in the home.<\/p><p>&#8220;For me, it&#8217;s about socio-economic issues as well as infrastructure. There&#8217;s also this great myth that to work in technology you have to be a technician. In fact, the sector needs different skills, whether it&#8217;s programme management, finance or operations.&#8221;<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\ud83d\udca1Related articles:<\/p><table dir=\"ltr\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" data-sheets-root=\"1\"><colgroup><col width=\"656\" \/><\/colgroup><tbody><tr><td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;How to become a Data Analyst: Your Ultimate Guide to Making the Leap! - Data Science Courses | DataScientest&quot;}\" data-sheets-hyperlink=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/how-to-become-a-data-analyst-your-ultimate-guide-to-making-the-leap\"><div><div><a class=\"in-cell-link\" href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/how-to-become-a-data-analyst-your-ultimate-guide-to-making-the-leap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How to become a Data Analyst: Your Ultimate Guide to Making the Leap! &#8211; Data Science Courses | DataScientest<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/td><\/tr><tr><td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;What tools does a Data Analyst use on a daily basis?&quot;}\" data-sheets-hyperlink=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/data-analyst-tools\"><a class=\"in-cell-link\" href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/data-analyst-tools\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">What tools does a Data Analyst use on a daily basis?<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Data Analysis Course: Face-to-face or online, what's the best choice? - Data Science Courses | DataScientest&quot;}\" data-sheets-hyperlink=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/data-analysis-course-face-to-face-or-online-whats-the-best-choice\"><a class=\"in-cell-link\" href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/data-analysis-course-face-to-face-or-online-whats-the-best-choice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Data Analysis Course: Face-to-face or online, what&#8217;s the best choice? &#8211; Data Science Courses | DataScientest<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>A few years ago, while working for a headhunting firm, Luxford was frustrated by the lack of women shortlisted for senior roles. To understand the barriers and how to overcome them, she travelled to Silicon Valley, near San Francisco, to interview 50 of the best women working in technology.<\/p><p>&#8220;What emerged was that women needed to have the right digital skills, ensure strong mentoring was in place, look at funding for [company] founders, increase the number of female venture capitalists and angel investors, [promote] best practice as a whole and change the remit of board members and non-executive directors to encourage diversity.&#8221;<\/p><p>Armed with this knowledge, Luxford went on to co-found Women in Tech in 2016. It now has 5,500 members across the UK and works with organisations, government and women to inspire change.<\/p><p><strong>Tech<\/strong> is a brilliant career for everyone, including women.<\/p><p>Many articles claim that women don&#8217;t need to tick all the boxes before applying for a job, yet women tend to apply for a role if they think they meet 100% of the qualifications, whereas men happily put their hand up when they meet 60%.<\/p><p>For many people, especially <strong>women in tech,<\/strong> the idea of working in the tech sector is daunting. Usually, the articles that get the most attention and publicity are those featuring tech geniuses such as Elon Musk and Steve Jobs (who aren&#8217;t very close).
