It’s Women in Tech Week, and there’s no better time to share the second episode of the Critical Careers podcast — “Welcome to the Industry”! 🎙️ The sole purpose of Critical Careers is to encourage more women to consider a career in tech and in the data centre space in particular. In this episode, host Joyce Wady is joined by Luisa Cardani from techUK, Holly Fenner from GeN+1, and Anna Rantala from BCS Consultancy. Together, they explore the many paths into digital infrastructure, the importance of community and visibility and why changing public perception is key to attracting diverse talent.
