We saw an imbalance in the technology industry. So we decided to change it.
For years, the technology industry has shared a common problem: hiring women in STEM-related fields. There simply weren’t enough women professionals with the skills needed to support clients in the digital world.
The problem is complex, but Avanade decided the way we could affect change is to address it one woman at a time.
We’re investing in college scholarships for women who wish to pursue careers in STEM-related fields. Today we are proud to say this program has funded a college education for 40 students from around the world. These students are beginning to graduate from college and are ready to begin their careers in STEM. Three of them who have completed their studies—including Nandita—are joining many other women professionals to begin their careers at Avanade.
STEM scholarships are just one way in which Avanade’s Corporate Citizenship fulfills its mission to enable young people and their communities to achieve more through the power of our people and digital innovation. Learn more about how we’re partnering with Junior Achievement to help young entrepreneurs strengthen their skills and using technology for social good with Microsoft.
“Being a part of the scholarship program has helped me to help more people. How Avanade not only treats its clients but also how it treats their employees makes me want to work for that type of a company.”
When the power of people meets the Microsoft ecosystem, that’s Avanade. That’s #humanimpact.
