Today, women and traditionally underrepresented groups hold one-third of all tech jobs, according to CTA’s 2019 Economic Impact Study.

For example, the proportion of women in computing jobs has decreased by five percent between 1991-2017.
A central theme of CES 2023, and a continuing initiative of CTA and our membership, diversity and inclusion programming, networking and events are under the spotlight for 2023 and beyond. Take a look at highlights and be a part of the conversation.
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) help create inclusive and innovative workplaces, and we welcome members of ERGs or staff member(s) dedicated to creating productive workplace cultures to have the opportunity to participate in the CES® experience, Jan. 7-10, 2020 in Las Vegas. CTA created a new program called The ERG Experience to help expand the diversity of attendees and provide them engagement opportunities.
