Description

Cyber offers an important and hugely rewarding growth potential, both in career and in guarding the risk of threat to companies and the public alike. And, regarding the statistics of those in the industry, according to Cybersecurity Ventures, women held 25% of cybersecurity employment globally in 2021, up from 20% in 2019.

Today, there are a multitude of successful women in cyber that can be viewed as positive role models with one particular pioneer from Hollywood. Seen widely on the big screen in films like Samson and Delilah and White Cargo, Hollywood actress Hedy Lamarr was an inventor who pioneered the technology that would one day form the basis for today’s WiFi, GPS, and Bluetooth communication systems. She was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2014 for the development of her frequency hopping technology, leading her to be to be dubbed “the mother of Wi-Fi” and other wireless communications like GPS and Bluetooth.

At this market briefing event, we welcome guest speakers who will be chatting to Thomas Clayton and Jodie Willett on a variety of related topics. Each of our guests will shed light on why they chose this career path, how they started, what inspired them, their greatest achievements and what could be in store for the next generation.
