Women We Admire Announces Rising Star Women of Technology for 2024
Summary
Though women represent nearly half the workforce, they make up only 28% of computing and mathematical positions and only 7% of IT jobs. This year, we honor the up-and-coming women in technology who are breaking barriers and hopefully closing the promotion gap in tech as they continue to rise to leadership roles. With over 20 years of leading tech companies and academic institutions, Koopmans and her team are advancing the capabilities of the voice-activated AI assistant Alexa. In this role, Teska leads UX design and research organizations, overseeing leaders responsible for crafting easy and enjoyable shopping experiences for customers globally. In her over 25 years of working in the telecommunications industry, Wilmot has a distinguished track record of successfully planning and executing effective technology solutions.
