In a world where technology continues to shape the future, Unyted is making a bold move towards gender diversity and inclusion within the tech industry. With the creation of SWIFT — Space for Women in Future Tech, Unyted is building a virtual haven for women-led communities in the field of technology. SWIFT serves as a central hub for women and their allies to connect, collaborate, and uplift each other in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

Bridging the Gender Gap in Tech

The technology industry has long been characterized by a gender imbalance, with women underrepresented in various tech-related fields. Recognizing the imperative for change, Gaby K. Slezák, the Co-Founder of Unyted, has taken a remarkable step forward by establishing SWIFT.

This challenge goes beyond mere equality; it’s about harnessing the full potential of our global community. Gaby K Slezák aptly emphasizes, “We need more women in A.I. and Web3 because half of the world’s population is not participating equally in the development of technologies which have a huge impact on all of us.”

SWIFT not only empowers women but also fosters an environment where diversity, inclusion, and collaboration shine at the forefront.

A Safe 3D Virtual World

SWIFT is a safe and innovative 3D virtual space where women in tech can come together, exchange ideas, and engage in meaningful interactions. Unlike conventional online platforms, SWIFT offers a unique immersive experience that fosters profound connections and networking opportunities. The virtual world features portals to event and lecture spaces, as well as tranquil breakout beaches where members can unwind and recharge.

Empowering Women in Tech Communities

SWIFT is more than just a virtual space; it’s a dynamic community where women in tech can thrive and connect with allies from across industries.

Regular meet-ups on a wide range of topics, including AI, Web3/4, VR, MR, AR, and more, ensure that members are continually engaged and updated on the latest technological advancements.

The inaugural theme, “Women in AI,” is accompanied by the hashtag #AIAllies, an initiative by Teneo.ai’s CMO Marie Angselius Schönbeck, highlighting the commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive environment for women in tech communities from all over the world.

A Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion

By co-founding this groundbreaking initiative, Unyted takes a significant step towards creating a more equitable and inclusive tech ecosystem. The introduction of gender diversity brings fresh perspectives, innovative solutions, and an expanded talent pool, thereby fostering enhanced success and growth within the technology sector.

SWIFT’s Focus on Mentorship & Career Development

SWIFT not only serves as a connecting point for women in tech but also extends opportunities for mentorship, career development, and personal growth. Through this platform, members can access guidance and support from experienced professionals, allowing them to navigate the challenges and complexities of the tech world with confidence.

Unyted’s commitment to diversity and inclusion isn’t mere rhetoric; it’s a tangible commitment to reshape the tech industry. SWIFT, the Space for Women in Future Tech, represents a beacon of hope and opportunity in the technology realm. By providing a virtual hub for women-led communities, Unyted is cultivating an environment where women can thrive, collaborate, and rightfully secure their place in the tech domain. Through SWIFT, Unyted is driving a positive transformation, paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable tech ecosystem. Together, we eagerly anticipate a brighter future where technology transcends gender boundaries.
