WorkPride Panel: Out in Tech Madrid Presents - Start-Up Unicorns, Featuring N26, Glovo, Cabify & Spotify

According to Mckinseys' latest estimate in Diversity and Inclusion - it is estimated that $12 trillion in additional GDP could be generated if the gender gap is narrowed by 2025 and $2 billion in potential revenue could be created if financial inclusion efforts broaden service for black Amercians.

Diversity wins? Is the business case for diversity and inclusion stronger than ever? How easy or difficult is it to build a diverse and inclusive organization culture? What is the future of D&I in the workplace after the global pandemic? Join us for an interactive evening with D&I leaders from global tech unicorns Spotify, N26, Glovo and Cabify to explore how they are building culture and implement changes for D&I, what it means for their companies and most importantly - what it means for each one of us.
