Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) is a core value at Intellias. In the spring of 2021, Intellias became the first Ukrainian IT company to sign the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), initiated by the UN Global Compact and UN Women. Since then, the company has consistently implemented them into daily and global processes, creating a comfortable environment for the career growth of female specialists. Women currently hold 43.81% of leadership positions at Intellias, compared to 35.16% in 2021. Intellias has also launched an IntelliWomen community, which has become a space of mutual support and development for more than 450 female specialists in the company.
It was delightful to be part of this movement and to share my stories. I was amazed by the diversity and richness of the topics and experiences of other participants… it’s the way to create global ecosystems that matter.
