How can we create an inclusive workplace that transcends borders? Pride in Tech are teaming up with the wonderful Flex for a panel discussion on October 19th, where we will explore what it means to foster a supportive working environment for LGBTQIA+ employees everywhere.

Authored by experts in diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging, our discussion will serve as a roadmap for organisations seeking to create an atmosphere where all employees, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, can thrive.

Human rights are human rights everywhere, and in a world characterised by increasing interconnectedness, the value of seeing inclusion through a global lens is clearer than ever.

Join us as we explore the unique challenges faced by LGBTQIA+ individuals in various regions, emphasising the importance of cultural understanding and sensitivity in creating a fairer working future for all.
