Introducing EmbliCats: Empowering Women in Tech at Emblica
Women remain underrepresented in the tech industry despite strong evidence that more diverse teams foster innovation, improve decision-making, and boost business performance. In the deep tech environment, where we work with machines, sensors, and advanced data science, the gender gap seems to be even more pronounced compared to the broader IT industry. This is why inclusivity in deep technology is particularly important. At Emblica, we believe that deep tech is for everyone—and that’s why we’re proud to introduce EmbliCats, our internal network dedicated to supporting and uplifting women in tech.
Who we are
EmbliCats is a community of women at Emblica, who share a passion for technology, equality, and professional growth. We are proud of the work we do at Emblica, tackling business challenges, already across 13 industries on land, sea, air and underground with cutting-edge technology. From robotics and autonomous machines to intelligent data pipelines and predictive sensory systems, we create innovative solutions that drive long-term success for our clients.
Every woman at Emblica, including those who will join Emblica in the future, is a member of EmbliCats, bringing their unique insights and experiences to the table. Whether it’s over breakfast meetups, coffee breaks, workshops, or other activities, we come together to exchange ideas, deepen our knowledge, support one another, and drive meaningful initiatives that empower women in tech.
