I’ve been reflecting on Women in Tech Week and the conversations sparked by the Lovelace Report, which made headlines last week for highlighting how many women are leaving the tech sector. As someone approaching 30 years in software, I wish I could say things feel very different — but I’m still the only woman in my team today. That’s not about capability or ambition; it’s about culture, inclusion, recognition, and how we structure careers in tech. We can’t afford to lose the experience, creativity, and leadership that women bring to technology. To all the women in tech — those just starting out, those hanging in there, and those who’ve stepped away — your presence and your stories matter. Let’s keep pushing for workplaces where we don’t have to be the only one in the room. 💬 I’d love to hear from others — how have things changed (or not) in your part of the industry?

Last month in our Women In Tech series, we heard from Isobel and her journey into the technology sector. Today we hear from Abbie and how her journey into technology also doesn't follow a traditional education to real-life route, exploring how she transitioned into technology from a different career. You can read the full interview on our website. https://lnkd.in/e89g-NYT #WomenInTech #TechnologyRoles #TechnologyCareer

Women In Tech Week - 13th - 17th October 2025   The 2025 Lovelace Report paints a tough picture for women in tech. Every year, up to 60,000 women leave tech roles in the UK, and it’s costing the economy billions. But what’s even more concerning are the reasons behind it. It’s not about family or caregiving, as many assume. It’s about unequal pay, limited access to high-visibility projects, and promotion frameworks that reward who’s seen, not who’s skilled. Too often, women don’t have sponsors who truly advocate for their growth. We talk a lot about bringing more women into tech, but we rarely talk about what it takes to make them stay. The truth is, fixing this isn’t about grand statements. It’s about fairness, transparency, and leaders who open doors for others. The need for male allies: men who actively support women in developing their careers and in them taking on leadership roles, has never been greater. Because when women stay, grow, and lead, everyone benefits.

The UK’s global position in technology depends on building and sustaining the strongest workforce possible. Yet, women remain noticeably under-represented in the tech sector—highlighting both a pressing challenge and a major opportunity for growth. In response, TechWorks is proud to announce the launch of Women in TechWorks, a member-led initiative set to raise awareness, celebrate achievement, accelerate career progression, and support women in tech at every stage of their journey. https://lnkd.in/ejVvQ9fy Read more here: https://lnkd.in/efjEnQWV

Women are driving innovation, but the system still holds them back. Only 17% of tech CEOs and 8% of CTOs are women. Half leave the industry before turning 35. It’s time for spaces that amplify women in tech. Not just include them. That’s why we created She Shakes Tech.

I’ve lost count of how many rooms I’ve walked into where I was the only woman. And every time, I remind myself - representation is progress, but it’s not the finish line. This week is Women in Tech Week 2025, and while there’s so much to celebrate, the data still tells a sobering story. Women are leaving the tech industry at twice the rate of men - that’s around 100 women every day. Not because they aren’t capable, but because the systems weren’t designed for them to stay. I see it in care technology too. Women with deep operational and emotional intelligence - the very insight our sector needs - are often underrepresented in conversations about innovation. We don’t just need more women in tech. We need women shaping the systems, designing the solutions, and leading the change. Because technology is at its best when it reflects the world it’s meant to serve. #WomenInTechWeek #Leadership #CareTech #Inclusion #SparkCare
