Welcome to Women in Business, where we spotlight the trailblazers shaping today’s economy. I’m your host, and today, we’re diving into what it really means for women to navigate the current economic landscape in the tech industry.
Let’s get right into it. In 2025, women account for about 27% of the tech workforce. That’s progress, considering the numbers were in the single digits at the turn of the century. But behind that statistic, there’s a story of resilience, innovation, and, yes, persistent challenges. Tech is an industry that moves fast—cloud computing, AI, cybersecurity, and software development drive the future, yet for every woman who enters, many still leave before reaching their full potential.
First, let’s talk representation and leadership. While women make up over a quarter of all tech jobs, just 11% of tech CEOs are women. In venture capital, the odds are even tougher—women receive only 3% of VC funding. And when it comes to pay, women in tech are still earning just 84 cents for every dollar a man makes. The numbers tell us there’s work to do, but they also highlight where we can focus—boardrooms, C-suites, and investment deals.
Next, consider the impact of recent disruptions. Tech sector layoffs have disproportionately affected women, with many citing job dissatisfaction or seeking more inclusive environments as reasons for leaving. In fact, 50% of women who start in tech leave by age 35. It’s a startling attrition rate, and it signals a need for real culture shifts—mentorship, sponsorship, and policies that actually retain women.
Now, the good news: Women are breaking barriers, especially in emerging areas like artificial intelligence. Women of color, for instance, now make up more than half of women in tech roles. That’s a testament to the growing diversity of voices shaping technology, and it’s critical for innovation.
Let’s spotlight entrepreneurship. Women are founding companies, building products, and redefining markets. Yet, their access to funding and networks remains limited. Closing this gap is more than a diversity checkbox; it’s about unleashing massive economic potential.
Finally, let’s talk solutions—policy and advocacy. Three out of every four tech companies have implemented pay equity policies, and flexible work arrangements are now standard in many firms. These changes are not just about fairness; they’re smart business. Companies with diverse teams outperform, period.
So, as we move forward, let’s keep the conversation focused on progress and action. We need more women at the decision-making table, more support along the career pipeline, and more visibility for those who are innovating every day.
To recap our five discussion points today: leadership and representation, the impact of economic disruptions, diversity in emerging fields, entrepreneurship and VC, and the power of policy. The future of tech is brighter when women lead, build, and shape it. Thanks for joining me on Women in Business.
