This is your Women in Business podcast.

Welcome back to Women in Business. I’m your host, and today, we’re diving headfirst into the realities facing women navigating the current economic landscape—specifically in the fast-evolving tech industry.

Let’s start with the progress. The tech sector, once seen as an unbreakable “boys’ club,” is undeniably shifting. Today, women hold nearly 35% of all tech jobs, a massive leap from just 9% in the early 2000s. Some of the best metros for women in tech aren’t necessarily the ones you’d expect—San Jose, California, still leads in average earnings, with women there making around $161,000. But it’s not just the traditional tech giants anymore. Cities like Little Rock, Arkansas, and Columbia, South Carolina, are making waves. Little Rock is seeing dramatic increases in female tech earnings, while Columbia is now a leader in gender diversity throughout the tech sector.

But the numbers also reveal where the journey gets tough. Women still make up less than 27% of all technology jobs right now, and the gender pay gap persists. On average, women in tech earn about 84 cents for every dollar made by men. And when we zoom in on leadership, the gap widens—women hold only around 11% of tech CEO roles and secure just 3% of venture capital deals. These numbers aren’t just statistics; they’re daily realities faced by ambitious women from San Francisco to Atlanta.

So how are women navigating this landscape? One key factor is the rise of supportive networks and mentorship programs. Organizations like Women Who Code, Girls in Tech, and AnitaB.org are giving women more than just resources—they’re creating thriving communities, matching mentors with up-and-coming leaders, and advocating for genuine pay equity. Many tech companies—over 75%—are now implementing pay equity policies, showing signs of institutional change. But policy is only part of the puzzle. Real progress comes when company culture supports and uplifts women at every level.

Another driving force is entrepreneurship. Women are launching startups at record rates, tackling problems from fintech to healthtech. While they still face obstacles in access to venture capital, women entrepreneurs are building networks, sharing lessons, and proving again and again that innovation thrives on diversity.

The conversation around intersectionality is also gaining ground. Today, women of color represent more than half of women in tech roles, but they, too, face unique challenges around advancement and representation. Recognizing their voices—and their leadership—must be at the core of our efforts to build a better tech ecosystem.

In the end, the current economic landscape for women in tech is a mix of hard-earned wins and ongoing hurdles. We are seeing more women break barriers, own their expertise, and claim their space at the table—but there’s much more work to be done. Stay tuned as we explore these topics and more in today’s episode of Women in Business.
