We established Women in DevOps in 2017 to address the gender imbalance within the DevOps industry. Our aim is to help close the DevOps gender gap and empower the DevOps leaders of the future. Our unique platform has become a global movement and is used to not only amplify the voices of women, but of all minority groups within DevOps, to break down the barriers and drive positive change. We believe that a balanced and diverse workforce drives innovation. We encourage and empower women to create innovative solutions, encourage organisations to retain women in to their communities, and to promote gender equality. We are a not-for-profit committed to creating an open and inclusive community, where we embrace our differences to make a real impact throughout the technology world, enabling diversity not only in the workplace, but throughout our wider communities.
