About this talk

Women are making waves in technology, bringing fresh perspectives and leadership styles that challenge the status quo. But as they push forward, women often encounter unique hurdles, especially when it comes to gender equality. According to data from the World Economic Forum, at the current rate of progress, it will take until 2158, which is roughly five generations from now, to reach full gender parity. This webinar gathers the women leaders of Applied Digital for a candid discussion about their personal and professional paths, lessons learned, what it will take to create a more inclusive tech ecosystem for future generations, and what swift and decisive steps are needed to create gender equality. KEY TOPICS: ● Career Growth and Lessons Learned: The pivotal moments, challenges, and milestones shaping their careers. ● Evolving Tech and Leadership: How AI, HPC, and digital infrastructure are advancing, and why leadership diversity matters. ● Breaking Barriers: The workplace gaps still to close and how collaboration can drive inclusivity and opportunity. ● Advice for Future Generations: What young women entering the STEM field should know.
