“If you’re human, you’re biased—but that doesn’t mean hidden bias can’t be overcome.”
Asurint and Tech Elevator partner to host a screening of the award-winning CODE documentary, and you’re invited!
CODE exposes the dearth of American female and minority software engineers and explores the reasons for this gender gap. CODE raises the question: what would society gain from having more women and minorities code?
