Tech has always been a heavily male-dominated industry. Fortunately, this has improved and evolved over the years, with a steady surge of female talent revolutionising the STEM sector. However, there’s still a long way to go before we reach an equal gender balance in this space.
Salesforce’s Global Digital Skills Index has revealed that 76% of respondents do not feel prepared for a world that prioritises tech savviness and a digital-first mindset.

Recent findings from the Office for National Statistics found that there are 98,000 vacancies for ‘professional scientific and technical roles’, up 28.2% on the previous three months. However, with only so many education institutes training individuals in these roles, the tech talent shortage isn’t slowing down. In fact, the skills needed across the industry are growing with each year.
