Since Nabiax<\/a> started its operations in 2019, equality of opportunities by gender has always been a priority, specially as the company operates in an industry which has been historically male-focused. This is reflected in the evolution of the company\u2019s team, which had a 30% of female employees in 2019, being today 41%.<\/strong> In the case of the operations team, women represent a 60% <\/strong>of the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the International Women\u2019s Day<\/strong>, we have interviewed the latest addition to our Operations team in Spain: Ang\u00e9lica Vielma (Venezuela, 1996), who is an Industrial Engineer. She speaks about her vision of the role of women in STEM careers, and specially in the Engineering area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Q: Which is your general vision of the presence of Women in STEM? Do you identify any changes in the last few years?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A: <\/strong>I believe more women choose to develop a professional career in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) disciplines. Without a doubt, there has been a notorious change in the past years, living in a society that has made a lot of progress in gender equality matters. Despite these efforts, there is still a long way to go, and it is necessary to eliminate certain stereotypes that made harder for the previous generations to study these careers, considered more male-focused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Q: What role will women play in this particular segment in the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A: <\/strong>Women will have more a more presence in positions of high responsibility in most disciplines. We will be inspiration and we will generate confidence in other women who choose to follow this path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Q: Do you see any progress in equality and inclusion policies in the companies? Which strengths and improvement areas do you identify?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A: <\/strong>There is a clear commitment in these matters from the enterprises. Most of them have implemented measures towards having diverse people int heir teams, which provide a variety of experiences and perspectives that allow them to have a wider view. This is very valuable in a global context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite all of it, it is not only a matter of hiring diverse talent, but of having an active listening attitude and fostering a working environment that guarantees equality and respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Q: How do you want to develop your career as an Engineer?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A: <\/strong>My desire is to keep working in Engineering positions, as long as it keeps allowing me to develop my skills and keep learning both personal and professionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
