Girls Out Loud Show Episode 10: Women in Tech… We Will Conquer That in Time Too

by on September 6th, 2010

In Episode 10 of the Girls out Loud Show, Maya and Cristina talk about the issue that we’ve tried to avoid long enough on the show – the lack of women in the tech industry. There isn’t just one answer to the question ‘Why aren’t there more women in the tech industry?’ and we give you our complicated thoughts on the matter. We also talk about the ex-Paypal talent all throughout the tech industry, the possible Sykpe acquisition, and the ever looming death of Myspace (just to end it on a positive note). Take a listen!

    I know a lot of women in Silicon Valley and I can honestly say they aren’t treated the same way as men.

    At CES for example I was in a meeting with a company based in Silicon Valley along with Radiris and the VP of the company that we were speaking too didn’t even look at Radiris it was almost as if he didn’t see her.

    I personally see a lot of women in Tech but then I realize they don’t work in “Tech” but for that “tech” firms PR firm or marketing department etc.

    As for tech communities, the problem is in general is everyone thinks they are better than everyone else and people love using made up statistics.

    MySpace plugging into Facebook just shows how desperate MySpace is to keep their userbase.
