We're on a mission to close the gender gap in tech.
The gender gap in computing is getting worse.
In 1995, 37% of computer scientists were women. Today, it’s only 24%. The percent will continue to decline if we do nothing.
We know that the biggest drop off of girls in computer science is between the ages of 13 and 17.
