Interview to Alaina Percival
summary
Women Who Code files as a 501(c)(3) and scales a local Bay Area meetup into a network with 50,000+ members across 20 countries, 60 cities running 1,000+ free technical events per year. Claims include measurable business impact: diverse teams show higher collective intelligence and firms with women in executive roles report better returns. Tech’s talent shortage and higher salaries create leverage for women to negotiate and advance, and the sector can adopt data-driven audits for pay and promotion bias.
