Computer Weekly, in partnership with Nash Squared, is seeking nominations for the most influential women in the UK’s technology sector. Despite the slow progress in increasing diversity, showcasing existing female talent is crucial to inspiring others to pursue careers in tech. Suki Fuller, last year’s most influential woman, emphasized the importance of teaching future generations to be change-makers. The annual list includes Rising Stars and inductees into the Hall of Fame, with nominations growing yearly. Expert judges select the top 50, which readers can then vote on. The winner will be announced at a diversity in tech event in London. The deadline for nominations is August 23, 2024.
The judging panel, including industry professionals like Russ Shaw and Karen Blake, recognizes the impact of women in technology and aims to celebrate their contributions and inspire the next generation.
