'The tech industry needs to encourage more diversity to ensure that people want to stay in the industry.'

The report asked 350 black women to tell them about their experiences.

Charlene Hunter, chief executive of CBF, told the BBC women's experiences showed there were still barriers to getting a job in tech. "We need senior leaders to match the large numbers of black women currently appearing in tech and engineering adverts, with genuine opportunities to progress into rewarding jobs," Ms Hunter said.

Only one white presenter on out of eight presenters, maybe you have a story right under your own nose.

Why exactly? Does it matter what colour a person's skin is?

That is usual stereotypical bbc bollocks. bbc lies every second of every day

Let's hire people based on the colour of their labia/ identity.🙄 Tech is one of the most woke sectors out there, and have pushed the above for over a decade. Just keep pushing 'diversity' (9 out 10 means black lesbians).

There's great male/female south Asian participation, so that suggests there are no barriers based on ethnicity. Surely it's a case then of more black women needing to *want* to work in the industry and train up on coding?

No. You need to promote being hired on your talents instead of your race. That's how you get lackluster employees.

Less white then.
