Ada Lovelace was a mathematician and often called the first computer programmer. According to the Office of the Chief Scientist, women comprise only 28 % of the STEM workforce and even less for women in the new and emerging tech industries.
So picture this: CJ Jones, the Head of Generative AI Design from Canva, unveiling the secrets of AI and design; Cheryl Shannon, the Technology Deployment Manager from IBM, decoding the intersection of sports and data; and Cassie Jenkins, the Horticultural Operations Technician from InvertiGro, cultivating the future of indoor vertical farming.
No, we're not in the future. This happened in real-time as we held our fantastic live podcast event, which brought together over 100 curious minds in the audience and these brilliant women in STEM experts on the panel.
The future is here!
