Celebrating International Women’s Day 2025: Empowering Women in Tech with WxCode7
Every year on March 8th, the world unites to celebrate International Women’s Day (IWD), a global movement honoring the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. This year’s theme, “Inspire Inclusion,â€Â reminds us to champion diversity and create environments where women thrive—especially in industries like tech, where gender gaps persist. At WxCode7, we’re proud to stand with women innovators, coders, and leaders shaping the future. Let’s explore why this day matters and how we can collectively drive change.
Why Website MaintenanWhy Women in Tech Matterce Matters?
From Ada Lovelace, the world’s first computer programmer, to modern pioneers like Reshma Saujani (founder of Girls Who Code), women have revolutionized technology. Yet, women still make up just 28% of the STEM workforce (UNESCO, 2023). Closing this gap isn’t just about fairness—it’s about unlocking innovation. Diverse teams build better products, solve complex problems, and reflect the users they serve.
Challenges Women Face in Tech
Despite progress, barriers remain:
Underrepresentation in leadership roles: Only 19% of C-suite positions in tech are held by women.
Gender pay gaps: Women in tech earn ~$0.87 for every dollar earned by men.
Workplace bias: 50% of women in STEM report experiencing discrimination.
These challenges demand action, not just awareness.
