The gender pay gap not only undermines equality but also significantly affects innovation and diversity in tech companies. When women are underpaid, it sends a discouraging message, potentially deterring highly talented females from pursuing careers in technology. This reduction in gender diversity limits the range of perspectives and ideas, crucial elements for fostering innovation. Moreover, studies suggest that diverse teams are more creative and better at problem-solving, indicating that the gender pay gap indirectly hinders technological advancement by reducing the potential for diversity-driven innovation.
