This year's BEYOND Expo saw the SheTech Summit steal the spotlight, as global tech giants spotlighted initiatives to empower women in shaping tomorrow's innovations. CGTN's Olivia He connected with Dragana Kostic (BMW Technology Offices Asia-Pacific) and Maggie Liu (NVIDIA Global) to unpack how their companies are smashing glass ceilings in tech leadership.
Breaking Barriers with BMW & NVIDIA
Kostic revealed BMW's mentorship programs that have boosted female engineers' visibility in autonomous driving projects: "When women lead R&D teams, we see 20% faster problem-solving cycles. Diversity isn't just ethical—it's strategic."
Meanwhile, Liu highlighted NVIDIA's AI training platforms designed to upskill women in Southeast Asia: "Our 'Future Coders' initiative has trained over 5,000 women in AI development since 2022. Tech is the ultimate equalizer."
Why This Matters
With women making up just 26% of AI professionals globally (UNESCO data), events like SheTech are game-changers. Both executives agreed: addressing gender gaps in STEM could add $12 trillion to the global economy by 2030.
