The Impact of Regulation on Equality in Tech

European Data Protection Regulations, primarily via the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), establish strict guidelines for data management and privacy. While these regulations apply universally, without targeting any specific group, they do require a significant investment in compliance infrastructure. For women-led tech startups, which often operate with limited resources in their early stages, this can present a disproportionate challenge. Creating an environment that supports both data protection and the nurturing of underrepresented entrepreneurs is crucial for equitable growth in the tech industry.
