The Talent Crisis: Strategies to Build a Skilled Technology Workforce and Assure Diversity

For fast-growing technology companies, access to talent is a bigger problem than access to capital. Finding employees with strong backgrounds in the STEM fields--science, technology, engineering and math--is a primary concern for CEOs and investors. Technology's talent crisis includes the need to increase the presence of women and under-represented minorities in the tech workforce. This panel will address the problems, the opportunities and the strategies that nonprofit and for-profit organizations are putting in place to create a solution for the next century.

Moderator: Lesa Mitchell
Speakers: Byron Auguste, Freada Kapor Klein, Jackie Reses, Jamal Simmons, Hope Taitz
