David Rai, CEO of Sparta Global comments: “After graduating from university, it can be a daunting experience to enter the world of employment – particularly when you are faced with entering the competitive technology industry. This step can be even more difficult for women, with just 17 percent of the people working in technology in the UK being female.
“Sparta Global is committed to increasing diversity in tech through supporting the development of graduate women. Our talent team regularly visits universities across the UK to discuss the career opportunities and prospects available to women seeking a career in technology. This award recognises the great work of our passionate teams who are dedicated to promoting diversity and inclusion by increasing the number of women working in tech today”.
