Ah yes - the ongoing debate about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) versus meritocracy. While some tech leaders argue for a shift toward "merit, excellence, and intelligence" (MEI), data actually shows that diverse teams perform better and that DEI initiatives are crucial for addressing systemic barriers and achieving true fairness. At Vantage, we believe that valuing diversity and inclusivity not only drives innovation but also creates more equitable opportunities for all. 🌍💼 #DEI #Meritocracy #TechRecruitment #DiversityMatters #ADDvantage #ADDvalue https://lnkd.in/dUWe_5xd?

Some Exciting News in STEM Education... Polish tech entrepreneur miron mironiuk, founder of Cosmose, Inc., has launched a global initiative called "Code with Pope," endorsed by Pope Francis himself. This project aims to bring coding education to children around the world through a free online platform, teaching kids aged 11-15 the basics of Python. 🌍 The program will reach students across Europe, Africa, and Latin America, with a focus on Catholic countries. With the Pope's support, the initiative hopes to inspire millions to learn coding, helping to address the global tech skills shortage and opening up new opportunities for the future. 🔧 According to the World Economic Forum, many of the fastest-growing jobs are in tech. This initiative is a crucial step toward preparing the next generation for success in an increasingly digital world. What a cool and amazing effort to make quality programming education accessible to all! #STEM #Coding #TechEducation #GlobalInitiative #CodeWithPope https://lnkd.in/giBUCf6D

"If you focused solely on the Japanese industry, you would be forgiven for forgetting the crisis that has subsumed the wider industry." After Microsoft's shutdown of Tango Gameworks, it's clear that Japan's gaming industry stands out for its stability amidst #globallayoffs While layoffs hit hard elsewhere, Japanese companies like FromSoftware, Inc. and Capcom are not only keeping staff but also boosting wages. This resilience is due in part to Japan's strong employee protections and a thriving #mobilegaming market. To mirror Japan's success, other countries, like the UK, could strengthen employee protections, prioritize long-term stability over short-term gains and foster domestic markets that reduce reliance on international sales. Investing in local talent and creating supportive work environments could also help build a more resilient industry globally. #ADDvantage #ADDvalue https://lnkd.in/ecKW5v8u
Why are Japanese developers not undergoing mass layoffs?
