"How to solve for the lack of women in technology":
It has been said that women hold up half the sky — and they account for more than half of the users of technology products and websites. However, in 2015 according to the National Center for Information & Technology, a mere 25 percent of the computing workforce were women.
According to Girls Who Code, by 2020, there will be 1.4 million jobs available in computing-related fields. U.S. graduates are on track to fill 29 percent of those jobs, with women filling just 3 percent.
