1st European Celebration of Women in Computing in Brussels

Are you a young woman in technology or an ICT Company? Then join us for the 1st European Celebration of Women in Computing, taking place from 25 to 26 of April 2016 in Brussels, Belgium, during the Girls' Day Week. This is a unique opportunity for young women working in computing to discover what other women have already contributed to the field, learn about European Commission initiatives and meet IT companies looking for highly skilled women. If you are an ICT Company, this is your opportunity to reinvent your IT company through good practices of gendered innovation, diversity and inclusion, and balanced leadership.
 
At the same time that many Europeans are struggling to find work, technology companies face a critical shortfall in ICT workers. Europe may experience a shortage of up to 825,000 ICT professionals by 2020, risking growth and competitiveness. Women are also significantly under-represented in ICT related jobs – less than 30% of the ICT workforce is female.
 
The event is organised by the European Centre for Women and Technology (ECWT) under the patronage of the European Commission's DG GROWTH, DG CONNECT and DG Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion.
