About Us
Now more than ever, we need women in data careers to create economic equality for women for the jobs of today and tomorrow, and ensure the algorithms and data running our world are fair and equally distributed.
By 2030, Women in Data is on a mission to reach 10 million lives and achieve 30% female representation in data careers.
Mission
Increase diversity in data careers
Vision
Create a world where all can use and benefit from data and AI
Values
Community Opportunity Diversity Education
Women in Data was created in 2015, when our founder, Sadie St Lawrence noticed the lack of women representation as she began her journey into data. Concerned about the prospect of gender equality in a data-driven future, the first chapter of Women in Data was launched.
We have since shaped Women in Data to the global community we are today. A place for data enthusiasts of all backgrounds to connect, grow, and lead together.
