Magna, DuPont to Co-Host Women of Inforum@CES Networking Reception to Connect Women in Tech
02 Dezember 2021 - 2:00PM
Women make up half of the total U.S. college-educated workforce,
yet represent only 28 percent of the science and engineering
workforce and hold only about a quarter of the jobs in automotive
manufacturing.
To connect talented women and men within the automotive and
other tech-reliant industries, Magna and DuPont will host the Women
of Inforum@CES event at the 2022 show to showcase and support the
work of Inforum, a nonprofit dedicated to accelerating the careers
of women and building talent initiatives at companies. The
reception will be Thursday, January 6, 2022, 4-6 p.m. PST, at the
Magna Booth #5528, West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention
Center.
“Women represent an important but underrepresented part of the
automotive workforce and in STEM fields overall. We, along with our
partners, are working to rectify this,” said Terry Barclay,
president and CEO of Inforum. “CES represents an excellent
opportunity to tap into the talented women and men in these growing
fields and help them make the connections needed to advance and
elevate their careers.
“This event will bring together corporate partners, our members,
participants in our AutomotiveNEXT initiative, and others who are
invested in building the best talent pipelines through workplaces
that value Diversity & Inclusion.”
“We are proud to support events like Inforum@CES which give us
an opportunity to bring talented people together focused on further
strengthening our industry. Sharing best practices and
collaborating with one another helps all of us advance diversity,
equity and inclusion when building the next generation talent
pipeline at all levels,” said Eric Wilds, Chief Sales and Marketing
Officer.
“DuPont recognizes that diversity, equity, and inclusion must
translate to all levels of business – from the top to the shop
floor. Diversity of people as well as thought are what drives
innovation,” said Kimberly Markiewicz, VP, Chief Diversity, Equity
and Inclusion Officer. “Through our work with Inforum and
AutomotiveNEXT, DuPont is committed to recognizing, empowering, and
embracing the contributions of women in the workforce. It’s not a
short journey, and we all have a role to play.”
