On February 9th , Tre Sverige's HR Business Partner Julia Palm is interviewed about her participation in Womentor. Tre Sverige is one of the companies that has been part of TechSverige's gender equality and change program since the start in 2006.
Womentor 2021 will end on February 11.
- "There is a major skills shortage in the tech industry and we suffer from not having the gender balance we would like and cannot grow to the extent we want as a company. The future is here and the opportunities are huge, but we need to create an industry and a story that attracts more people," says Åsa Zetterberg about the state of the industry.
In 2022, TechSverige will take a holistic approach to gender equality efforts, a work that will continue throughout the year. Recruitment to the Womentor program will therefore be paused in 2022.
-The government writes that the purpose of the decision is "to ensure" society's digital transition. If we could ensure the digital transition for SEK 50 million a year, few would hesitate.

The Sustainability Council will meet on February 24.

We as organizations are united in our condemnation of Russia's actions and are now working to be there and support our member companies, writes Åsa Zetterberg.
