The IT capital Undergoes Womanization

Bangalore is the IT capital of India and is often popular as the Silicon Valley that houses several big players in technology and services. With 40 percent of India’s IT industry located in Bangalore, the city is among the most favored destination for IT and other knowledge-based industries. The city’s IT and related services account for about 55 percent of Karnataka’s state gross domestic product. But unfortunately female representation falls short when it comes to IT. Gartner reflects, only 31 percent of IT employees are women, making it a high-time for women to jump into something new and work with latest innovation and tools.

With revolutions in industries and mankind, the role of women today has been changed significantly, but definitely for the betterment of the society. Big thanks to the increasing number of well-known organizations as they are the trend drivers towards women in leadership position and providing gender equality a paramount importance to minimize the gender gap.

Finally the world is now witnessing women increasingly gaining power in the corporate world that had been previously denied to them.
