I’ve written a lot on the alarming lack of interest of girls (and boys) in technology careers. This week I read some encouraging news I wanted to share.
Google’s inaugural science fair was held on Monday and the three winners were all girls! Google reviewed more than 7,500 entries to bring the 15 top applicants to Google headquarters for final judging. These 15 were interviewed by luminaries in technology, including a Nobel Laureate, National Geographic Explorers, and some of Google’s best and brightest.
As we know, there is no shortage of younger girls interested in math and science, but for some reason that drops off in middle school, yet these girls were all teenagers. Let’s hope their interest continues. We need smart people like this in technology!
When it comes to technological solutions, you want a firm that has a proven track record of excellence. As one of the first software and hardware consulting firms in the Northeastern United States, Advanced Decisions is a leader in the industry. Our strength is not only in the experience that we bring, but also in our approach to developing solutions.
