Virtual Tech Talk by Rogers: Doubling Down on Recruitment- Cultivating a Pipeline to Black Talent
In today’s business world, there is simply no excuse for not valuing diversity. We know that Black professionals are heavily underrepresented in tech across all levels. This needs to change!

That’s why today, we’re doubling down on recruitment and outreach initiatives, so that we can create a more inclusive tech sector that reflects the world around us and gives everyone a fair seat at the table.
