Web Summit founder Paddy Cosgrave is doubling down on efforts to bring young women into the tech spotlight, calling them essential to shaping tomorrow’s digital world. 🌍✨ In a recent interview with CGTN, he emphasized that "the future is always built by the next generation"—and that generation needs more diversity.
For over a decade, Web Summit has run programs specifically designed to help young women attend its flagship tech conference, which draws global innovators like a Coachella for coders. 🎤💻 Cosgrave confirmed these initiatives will continue, saying they’ve proven successful in bridging gaps in the male-dominated industry.
💡 Why it matters: With women still underrepresented in tech roles worldwide, initiatives like these could spark the next big breakthrough—think AI designed with broader perspectives or apps addressing overlooked needs. As Cosgrave puts it, "When you bring diverse minds together, magic happens." ✨
