September 20, 2023 1:00 pm EDT — September 20, 2023 2:00 pm EDT
Supporter price: $0.00 Regular price: $300

This event will be hosted in the following time zones:

A 2020 study found that while women overall comprise 28.8% of the US tech workforce, Latinas hold a mere 2% of jobs in STEM. This abysmal statistic disproves the argument of meritocracy in technology. 
Companies that prioritize diversifying their teams by recruiting Latinas will see growth in innovation and product development. This webinar will explore how Latinx women are changing the tech landscape and showcase expert insights on:
  • Innovative solutions for busting workplace barriers faced by Latinx Women.
  • Finding role models and mentors with similar backgrounds and overcoming the challenges of navigating the complexities of unconscious bias.
  • Best-in-class programs for recruitment, engagement, and retention of Latinx women.
  • Fostering opportunities for growth through strong networks and building a sense of belonging.
