STACK Infrastructure partners with the Women’s Forum for the Economy and Society

“We must actively support and advance diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives to unlock innovation and attract and retain women in roles at all levels across the technology industry,” said STACK EMEA Chief Executive Officer John Eland. “We have a responsibility to act as role models and mentors, which we do, in part, by contributing to programs that encourage youth to explore careers in technology. By supporting the Women’s Forum, we hope to encourage and attract more women to STACK, and to the technology sector as a whole. Our participation in the Global Meeting serves as a complement to our programs across EMEA that focus on education and upskilling in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths.”

STACK’s contribution as a Global Meeting partner will help foster collaboration between businesses and policymakers to seek solutions to common challenges and develop strategies that accelerate inclusive growth and increase equality. STACK believes that inspiring the next generation of talent is one of the most powerful ways to promote diversity across technology sectors; on 28 November, STACK EMEA Chief Executive Officer John Eland will take the stage with fellow global business leaders for the plenary session, “Closing the gap: Innovative solutions for addressing the STEM pipeline problem.

STACK’s DE&I initiatives also include its own Women's Leadership Summit, held annually in both EMEA and the Americas, which invites women from across the organization to participate in sessions on empowerment, professional development, leadership, industry trends, and networking.
