In March, we celebrate Women’s History Month, but every day, women shape the world of technology as we know it.

Fast-forward to the present day, and the share of female CEOs in tech is on a positive trajectory, jumping from 3.9% in 2020 to 10.9% in 2021.
Indeed, we’ve made progress toward gender parity, but we still have a long way to go.
