Conclusions
• “Gender equality is an existing and unrealized commitment” (Arzu Ozyol, UN Second Vice President)
• «Tech is too important to be left to men!» (Neelie Kroes, EC Vice President)
• “ICT is no longer for the geeky few – it is cool, and it is the future! Only 9% of app developers are women? Come on! Give coding a try, see how fun it can be!" (Neelie Kroes, EC Vice President)
• Women have a special ability to solve problems and this is the IT core
• ICT has a transformative power and could act as catalysts for women empowerment
