Tech Needs More Women

There, I said it. The tech industry needs more women to get in and make things right again. It’s way too male dominated and it doesn’t have to be.

Over half of the professionals in the United States are women. They account for nearly 50% more college degrees than men. With this kind of knowledge, how is it right that less than 20% of the working computer hardware engineers are men? Answer: it isn’t.

This graphic by our friends at SocialCast lays the foundation for why the tech world needs more women. Pay attention – we should expect to see this male-dominated industry fall to the females soon enough.
