The gender gap in STEM fields persists despite the abundance of opportunities available. Even though women make up half of the student population, only 35% continue to study STEM subjects after GCSEs, with the number dropping to 25% at the university level. This underrepresentation is even more pronounced in leadership positions and at the board level.
Research has shown that companies with diverse executive boards are ten times more profitable on average than those with all-male boards. Women currently make up only 29.4% of the STEM workforce, highlighting the need for more diversity and inclusion in these sectors. Efforts must be made to close the gender gap and encourage women to not only enter STEM careers but also to advance to leadership positions.
