Background

In 2024, women comprised only 11% of executive positions within the tech industry, reflecting the persistent gender gap in leadership roles. Between 2021 and 2024, women and non-binary individuals occupied just 15% of C-suite positions—including CIOs and CTOs—within NASDAQ-100 tech companies.

This year was not only characterized by key leadership transitions but also by the industry-agnostic impact of emerging technologies and shifting workforce dynamics. The rise of generative AI, emerged as a major technological breakthrough, redefining possibilities across various sectors. However, this rapid advancement also brought to light the underrepresentation of women in AI development, a gap that global leaders like Melinda Gates have emphasized needs urgent addressing. 

Against this backdrop, it is crucial to shine a light on the women who are breaking barriers and forging new paths in technology. We are focusing on the trailblazers - the innovators, executives, and influential figures who hold leadership positions in this sector. These women, with their exceptional talent and achievements, are not just contributing to the tech industry; they are actively rewriting its history.
