Major Companies Working to Support Women in STEM

We just wanted to give a shout out to brands like Google, ComEd, Verizon, and GoldieBlox for their work in trying to encourage women to go into the STEM professions.

It’s no secret that only 24% of STEM employees are female, and it’s great to see that small businesses and large corporations alike to trying to come together to bring more women into the fields of science, technology, engineering and math.

Way to go!
