The evidence is in and shows that organizations and decision makers benefit from a sound and practical understanding of the economic potential that a focus on gender parity in the STEM workforce can unleash.

Today, women are 50 percent of the US workforce but just 30 percent of the STEM workforce; and over 50% of that 30% leave the STEM workforce between high school graduation and during their early career in STEM. This has a tremendous and negative impact on the STEM workforce and competitive advantage for STEM industries. As technology continues to advance, failing to harness the skills and talents of half the population puts organizations and industries at a considerable disadvantage and risk.

This session interactively explores the status of women in the STEM workforce, the key drivers behind the gender talent gap in STEM, the potential economic impact of gender parity in the workplace, and provides practical and researched strategies for unlocking the economic potential of gender parity.
