Breakfast with Ryan Huang, Emaad Akhtar and Audrey Siek (6am-9am)Mind Your Business: Tech-nically Speaking - How can we close the gender pay gap in STEM?

Data from the International Labour Organisation (ILO) shows that, on average, women earn about 20 percent less than men in STEM occupations worldwide.
A young couple is dedicated to closing this gap. By offering high-quality education, mentorship, and support from industry leaders at Google and Microsoft, their academy strives to empower more women to enter and excel in the tech industry.
