No excuse for not having enough women working in tech, says Apple chief

Tim Cook admitted there are still "not enough women at the table" and warned that technology "will not achieve nearly what it could achieve" without a more diverse workforce.

According to a PWC "women in tech" report, just 23 per cent of the people working in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) roles across the UK are female.

Only five per cent of leadership positions in the technology industry are held by women.

The report also found 78 per cent of students couldn't name a famous female working in tech.
