When it comes to gender equality in the tech industry, the number probably won't surprise you. Only 17% of Venture backed Companies are founded by the women, and women make up just 17% of partners at 100 of the top venture capitalist firms.

Although many attempts are being made to encourage women into tech, we are still far from gender parity in the industry. What would the world look like if there were equal numbers of men and women in the sector ? Here are some thoughts of leading women that serve in tech industry successfully.
'More female led tech companies would change the way women are treated in society'
A strong Believer in a connection between a company's internal and the final product or the services they provided. there are many examples of tech companies where their internal attitude towards women are reflected in their products.
For example, there have been multiple stories about alleged sexual harassment relating to Uber, as well as the Miami letter. It became clear why Uber had been never considered the safest service for women.
If there were no tech companies led by women, I truly believe it would change the way women are treated in society.
'The Tech industry would produce better products for women'
With greater equality, the tech world would benefit from both work titles free of gender and diverse perspective, it would produce better products designed and marketed to women. It would also mean a better world, more diverse voices would mean products and services that work for everyone.
'Trolling would be tamed and Period Tech would be more Advanced'
If we had more women in the tech world, we would have more products that actually solved problems for everyone. When you have different types of people on medical trails, either on the funding side or doing the research, it means research is less biased.
Surveys show that in the volume and nature of trolling women are attacked more than men, so they are more aware of these issues. We believe if women were in charge of tech companies, there would be more protection put in place for cyber bullying and trolling .
