Episode Synopsis

Are we unintentionally coding bias into the future of tech? Our latest episode dives deep into the world of IT entrepreneurship to uncover how gender bias continues to shape the startup landscape.We explore groundbreaking research that reveals a self-reinforcing cycle where maleness has become the default prototype for success—a dynamic that pressures female founders to conform and limits their access to crucial resources like funding, especially in volatile markets.Using blockchain startups as a case study, we examine how female representation can paradoxically invite bias when it challenges the male-dominated norm.Tune in to hear why solving gender imbalance in tech isn’t just about empowering individual women, but about breaking the cycle that defines success by outdated standards.
