STEM Team 🔝🙌
Member of the Board of Management for Marketing and Sales AUDI AG & Member of the Extended Executive Committee Volkswagen Group
Diversity, equality and inclusion are topics very close to my heart. That’s why I would like to introduce you to Anna Sánchez Simó and her STEM initiative today. Ana is CIO and member of the board of directors of Volkswagen Group España Distribución. She is leading an initiative to close the existing gap between women and men with a STEM degree. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. The Spanish STEM graduates in 2023 were 65% men vs 35% women, which could eventually further increase the average wage gap between men and women. Of course, this is a relevant topic in many other countries, too. The vision of Ana’s STEM team that comprises 24 women in total is “Inspiring diverse and inclusive STEM vocations in generations to come”. The main project is to bring this inspiration to little girls in rural areas in Spain by bringing the STEM TEAM initiative on wheels with a specially designed ID.Buzz. This initiative truly touches me as it makes a difference for the lives of many girls and women and for the society as a whole. A big thanks to Ana and the whole team for your commitment and dedication! I am sure this is a great inspiration for many other markets as well. #Volkswagen #Diversity #Equality #Inclusion #LLXi
