Leading by example: gender equality and empowerment from within

The tech industry has never been a forerunner in gender equality. Traditionally, this field has been less accessible to women due to societal prejudice, structural inequity and a gender imbalance in STEM fields. It is time this changed.

At Star, our mission is to democratize access to opportunity and prosperity across the globe by empowering product creators worldwide to dream bolder, build better and succeed faster. Here, it starts with diversifying our teams and our leadership. 

We’re fortunate to work alongside extraordinary women whose stories can inspire the next generation of female leaders and drive meaningful change. Their journeys are an impressive reminder for us and the tech industry that effective mentorship, support and structural change are key to breaking down traditional barriers. 

Women have always navigated uncertainty, undertaken disproportionate burdens and emerged even stronger for it.
