We are firmly in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and women in the ICT industry play a critical role in this key sector, at every level. MTN recognises the contribution women make in STEM positions and in acknowledgement of this and International Women’s Day in March, we are profiling six of the remarkable women who have featured in our Women in ICT profiles over the past six issues of Brainstorm. We are proud of the women in this demanding industry and will continue our efforts to help strengthen the female pipeline and promote women in STEM careers.

“My advice to other women in the ICT industry is to learn quickly and fix if something needs fixing. Be passionate about problem-solving and be ready to learn, unlearn and relearn. Constantly update your skills and know what is happening in the world. Relish challenge and stay determined.” Unathi Thosago, CTO, Adcorp Holdings Limited Group
