With Tech is Pink we want to help the girls understand that through the study of scientific subjects they too can be an active part of this change and contribute to the future of Italy “she comments Alessandra Bergamo, Head of HR of MediaWorld Italia, and concludes «It is an important challenge and we are happy that even one of our consolidated partners like Samsung wants to face it together with us. Gender equality, talent enhancement and training they are pillars on which our strategy is based and on which our company revolves, we want to spread these values for a more equitable and inclusive society ».
E Giovanni Barina, Head of Human Resources & General Affairs of Samsung Electronics Italia, adds: «We are convinced that new technologies can enable people and in particular the new generations to reach their full potential and to guide processes of positive evolution in the social sphere in the future. Girls Tech is perfectly in line with our vision.
