Shortlist: the 2020 Women in Software Changemakers List

Brought to you in partnership with ComputerWeekly, Google for Startups and Level39

We know that businesses have huge influence when it comes changing the status quo. So in 2020, alongside our Women in Software Power List, we’re also spotlighting initiatives supporting the rise of women in tech.

Our Changemakers List recognises organisations and individuals that strive to make the tech industry more inclusive of women and gender minorities. These industry examples are paving the way forward for other businesses to follow.
