Women in GovTech

Established in 2021, GovTech's Women in GovTech Employee Resource Group (WiG ERG) was inaugurated as the first employee resource group dedicated to cultivating and retaining female talent within the organisation. WiG ERG is managed by a ExCo of GovTechies who volunteers across GovTech and supported by a team of Executive Sponsors from the Leadership team.

Today, WiG ERG has initiated diversity workshops, community engagement programmes, a Girls-in-Tech mentoring programme with almost 200 sign-ups and 130 mentors recruited across GovTech, and career events featuring industry leaders such as Airbnb, SheLovesTech, Uber, and more. WiG ERG continues to lead the charge in creating an inclusive environment where every individual has the opportunity to thrive and succeed.

International Women's Day celebrations

We’re all about celebrating women and empowering them with skills set to advance their career!

In 2024, we hosted our first conference in collaboration with IMDA to celebrate International Women’s Day. With over 200 attendees from over 50 public agencies, the event featured a career workshop, and a human library where participants engaged with inspiring women leaders from Microsoft, Spotify, and more. Beyond celebrating accomplishments, it was a great platform to form new connections, and to facilitate the exchange of insights, stories of resilience and leadership.
