The retention problem: Women are getting into the tech sector but being driven out also

By 2029, there will be 3.6 million computing jobs in the US, but there will only be enough college graduates with computing degrees to fill 24 per cent of these jobs.

For decades, the US has poured resources into improving gender representation in the tech industry. However, the numbers are not improving proportionately.

Instead, they have remained stagnant, and initiatives are failing.

Women make up 57 per cent of the overall workforce. Comparatively, women make up only 27 per cent of the workforce in the technology industry.
