Diversity goes a long way in the tech industry. It\u2019s more than just \u201cthe right thing to do.\u201d It\u2019s also good business. A 2018 McKinsey study<\/a> found that there\u2019s a positive correlation between workplace diversity and financial success. More specifically, companies with gender-diverse executive teams were 21 percent more likely to see significantly higher profits. Another study revealed that gender- and age-diverse teams made better decisions 87 percent of the time<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, why is there still little diversity in the tech industry?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Statista reported that although women\u2019s representation is increasing across the board, it\u2019s still fairly low in the tech industry<\/a>. There are many reasons behind this, one of which is the so-called degree gap. In 2016, women only received 18 percent of computer science degrees<\/a> awarded that year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make tech education more accessible, coding bootcamps like Le Wagon<\/a> are providing industry-relevant skills training for all\u2014regardless of gender. Read on as we highlight how Le Wagon honors women in tech and gives them a chance to claim their spot in the tech industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
