  • Shattering the Silicon Ceiling: Women Reboot the Future of Tech
    2025/05/18
    This is your Women in Business podcast.

    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.

  • Tech's New Trailblazers: Women Redefining the Industry Landscape
    2025/05/15
    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.

  • Shattering Silicon Ceilings: Women Pioneering Tech's Future

    # Women in Business: Navigating the Tech Landscape

    Welcome to Women in Business! I'm your host, and today we're diving into how women are navigating the economic landscape in the tech industry. Let's explore five key discussion points that highlight both challenges and opportunities.

    First, let's talk about representation. The tech industry continues to see modest growth in female participation. As of 2025, women represent about 35% of employees in STEM fields in the US—a notable increase from previous years but still far from parity. This number is even more striking when we look specifically at technology jobs, where women hold only about 27.6% of positions. This represents a small rebound of less than 1% from 2021, when female representation actually declined during the pandemic disruptions. The question becomes: how do we accelerate this growth?

    Second, leadership gaps persist despite progress. In 2023, only 24% of tech leadership roles were occupied by women, and women make up just 10.9% of tech CEOs. This leadership gap isn't just a ceiling issue—it affects everything from workplace culture to product development. Women who've broken through these barriers often report having to navigate different standards and expectations than their male counterparts.

    Third, funding disparities remain a significant hurdle. Women entrepreneurs receive a mere 3% of venture capital deals despite evidence showing that diverse leadership teams often deliver better returns. This funding gap limits growth opportunities for women-led startups and innovations. Organizations like Women in Tech Network are working to address these disparities, but systemic change requires institutional investors to recognize their biases.

    Fourth, pay equity is gaining traction but requires vigilance. While about 75.5% of tech companies have implemented pay equity policies, women in tech still earn approximately 84 cents for every dollar men make. Transparent salary structures and regular equity audits are essential for addressing these persistent gaps.

    Finally, early education and mentorship create pathways for future growth. Programs like ADVANCE and "STEM like a girl" are working to encourage girls to explore tech from an early age. Mentorship initiatives connect established women technologists with emerging talent, creating support networks that help navigate industry challenges.

    The road ahead requires multifaceted approaches—from education and mentorship to policy changes and recruiting shifts. By acknowledging both progress and persistent barriers, we can work collectively toward a more inclusive tech ecosystem that benefits from diverse perspectives and talents.

    What strategies have you found effective in your professional journey? We'd love to hear your experiences navigating today's tech landscape. Join the conversation at Women in Business!
