Inspire Inclusion - International Women’s Day 2024

The presence and participation of women in technology are more crucial than ever. To mark International Women’s Day on March 8, our Women’s Networks around the world organized a global mentoring event to help inspire and enable the next generation of women in IT leaders at CGI. During the event, CGI leaders facilitated a one-hour session with 1-3 CGI Partners, matched with mentors based on common areas of interest.

We believe mentoring programs offer numerous benefits to women in tech. They are a powerful tool to foster gender equity and inclusivity, facilitate knowledge transfer, and open up career pathways. These programs equip our women professionals to benefit from equal access to valued and promising professions and help us, as an organization, meet the evolving needs of our clients through innovative solutions that draw on diverse perspectives and insights.
