Facts we’re fighting

These aren’t just statistics to us. They’re the reason G&T exists.

And although some statistics are moving in the right direction, there’s still a very long way to go.

We have a duty of care to our community to only partner with brands that champion diversity and progressive hiring. Every new partner undergoes thorough due diligence because we only work with companies that don’t just talk about representation but they deliver it. Only with partners like these can we truly move the needle and close the gender gap in the tech industry.

26%
of the tech industry in the UK are female
50% Of Software Engineers leave the industry before the age of 35
5% Females identify as a lead or senior role in the tech industry
21% Data centres have no women in their technical function at all
26% Gender diversity in the UK tech sector remains low, with women making up a small proportion of tech teams.

Amplifying the voice of the women in tech community!

"I talk about networking a lot, however these events are the backbone of the northern tech scene and I have seen and experienced first hand the meaningful and long term friendships that have been created because of these meet ups."

"You’ve built such an incredible brand, and I love seeing your updates on the regular. The new initiative (G&TT (girls and tech of tomorrow!) is just mind blowing. My daughter is 9, and I hope there are people around being as supportive to the tech industry, when she’s old enough to be involved"

"The G&T events really do take away the awkwardness from networking and make it a pleasure to speak to other likeminded and & ambitious women in tech in Leeds."

We're driving powerful change

Real opportunities. Real community. Real insight.

We don’t rely on assumptions or surface-level diversity pledges. We collect data, we listen daily, and we translate those insights into practical strategies that help our partners attract, hire and retain exceptional female talent. Through G&T, we’ve built one of the UK’s largest and most active women-in-tech communities. Through G.Digital and our G&T client packages, we turn that access and insight into measurable outcomes.
