Capgemini is bridging the digital divide to ensure technology is an opportunity for all.
Digital transformation is exposing a clear divide that is impacting all geographies and sectors. Basic digital skills are essential to working, receiving medical care, traveling, and staying informed in our modern age, but the poorest in our society are too often left behind.
Capgemini believes people should never be limited in work and life by a lack of digital skills, and that the next generation of innovators should be supported. By using the skills and passions of its people, Capgemini is bridging the digital divide to ensure a future where technology is an opportunity for everyone.
Inspiring the next generation of innovators
"Empowering girls and women with the necessary skills to pursue tech careers has been a primary focus in fulfilling this long-standing goal of bridging the gap between technology and society," said the company. "Demonstrating its commitment to promoting STEM education among the youth, we have partnered with For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST) as a part of its Ace of STEM initiative, which currently supports over 80 global projects, introducing students to engineering and coding in creative, inclusive, and engaging learning environments."
Through the partnership, Capgemini is enabling the youth to work together and solve robotics-themed challenges, helping them build their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
With the active involvement of over 500 of its employees volunteering their time and expertise as judges and mentors, Capgemini is on its way to inspiring the next generation of innovators and problem-solvers.
