For PwC Sweden, it is a priority issue to get more girls and women interested in working in tech-related fields and professions and to get there you need to start early.
We know that increased diversity and more perspectives provide even better and more innovative solutions – something that both society and companies need in the future if we are to be able to solve the really big societal challenges. We see Girls in Tech as a concrete and effective way to increase diversity and equality within a relatively male-dominated field and we are a proud partner.
