The collaboration aims to provide the WIC community with access to and engagement with the Kyndryl ecosystem that will accelerate women tech founders and their solutions through mentorship, recruitment and leadership training opportunities. Kyndryl is committed to powering human progress through strong ESG practices that deliver value reliably and consistently to our employees, customers, stakeholders, and communities, including women tech founders in the WIC network.
“At Kyndryl we firmly believe that we’re stronger together and are thrilled to partner with WIC to further our Inclusion, Diversity and Equity (ID&E) mission and extend our impact to the WIC community of women technology entrepreneurs and professionals,” said Harish Grama, Global Cloud Practice Leader at Kyndryl. “Members of our team have had the honor of participating in WIC’s events, and we are deeply impressed with the organization’s commitment to creating valuable access for women in technology.”
Through the sponsorship, Kyndryl served as the title sponsor for this yearÂ’s WICxInspire event, which connects women tech founders and provides a platform to educate and showcase their technology solutions with enterprise buyers, investors, and influencers. Additionally, Kyndryl leaders have been showcased throughout the 2022 #empowHERaccess campaign, an annual digital advocacy campaign to initiate greater economic access for women in technology by igniting equitable economic access, building a connected and inclusive community, and shaping a sustainable future of technology through policy-driven industry excellence that inspires purpose-driven leadership.
“Kyndryl has already provided invaluable opportunities and insights to the WIC community through their leadership and investing in bold ideas that build a representative economy in which all individuals and communities participate in and benefit from sustained economic and social prosperity,” said Chaitra Vedullapalli, President of Women In Cloud. “Kyndryl’s status as a global industry leader will provide game-changing opportunities and visibility for the members of our community.”
In the coming months, Kyndryl leaders will continue to serve as advisors to accelerate ESG efforts across the WIC community through activations that include a co-branded CXO event and participation in the WICxLead WomenÂ’s Corporate ESG Leadership Accelerator.
