The Power of Visibility for Women in Tech
Visibility is crucial for advancing women in tech, not only for individual careers but for the health of the entire industry.
The 2025 Lovelace Report reveals that between 40,000 and 60,000 women leave UK tech roles annually, costing the sector £2–3.5 billion each year in lost talent and innovation. This attrition is driven by systemic issues such as lack of career progression, recognition, pay equity, and toxic cultures—not caregiving responsibilities as often assumed.
This event explores why visibility matters to break these barriers: it fosters role models, drives cultural change, and opens doors to leadership. We will share practical strategies for women to raise their profiles through networking, mentoring, storytelling, and seeking active allyship.
When we amplify our voices together, we don’t just empower individuals—we help retain talent, close the progression gap, and build a stronger, fairer, and more competitive UK tech sector for the future.
This event is proudly part of the UK-wide celebration of Women in Tech Week 2025 (October 13–17), a dynamic series of over 70 in-person and 30 virtual events across the country dedicated to championing gender equity, career advancement, and inclusion in the tech industry.
