Empowering Women In Tech

It is no secret that jobs in the tech industry are blooming and one of the fastest growing in the world, but can we justify that females are being left behind in the industry? Prior to today, Lava Protocols has talked to us about data visualisation, digital ads, cloud computing, social media, etc. but the focus today will be on women and why it matters to have women in the IT industry. Traditionally perceived as a male-dominated industry, Ruba and Vanitha are here today to bust the myth and misconceptions and enlighten us with their stand on women in the tech industry.
