According to a conducted by the Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA), women make up 10% to 25% of the workforce that’s driving us to the next era of silicon innovation. Needless to say, gender diversity in the semiconductor field has a lot of room for improvement, but there is incentive to increase diversity quickly. For instance, cites a survey finding that more diverse companies earned 45% of revenue from innovation compared to less diverse companies with only 26% of revenue from innovation. For companies whose lifeblood is innovation, this not only indicates that diverse companies are more innovative, but also that greater diversity will help drive the bottom line. In fact, there is a broad swath of studies on gender diversity in business to draw upon, and they tell the same story: greater diversity is good business.
