About this event
Despite the rapid growth and innovation in the ICT industry, the gender pay gap remains a significant issue. Women continue to earn less than their male counterparts for equivalent roles, facing barriers in compensation and career advancement. This exclusive event is designed for women working in ICT who are seeking to understand the root causes of pay inequality and develop negotiation skills that can empower them to advocate for fairer compensation.
Join us for an insightful evening with four distinguished panelists, including leaders from various sectors of the tech industry, as they share their experiences and strategies for closing the pay gap. The session will be facilitated by a renowned expert and will be followed by networking opportunities with peers and professionals from the ICT community.
Key Takeaways:
- Understand the systemic issues that contribute to pay inequity in the tech industry
- Gain actionable negotiation strategies for improving your salary and benefits package
- Learn from real-life experiences shared by women leaders in ICT
- Expand your network by connecting with women in similar roles across the industry
This women-only event is tailored specifically for those working in ICT, providing a supportive space to discuss, learn, and grow. Together, we can work towards closing the pay gap and achieving equity in the workplace.
