While the tech industry produces so much of the world’s innovations, diversity remains a challenge at all levels ranging from startups to world-renowned enterprises.
In the second installment of VMware’s Engage and Empower series — where we dive into various facets of diversity and inclusion in the tech industry — we are hosting a panel focused on celebrating Black voices in tech.
