As a leader in the STEM category and advocate of women in STEM, Kathryn Carter, General Manager, APAC Snap, kicks off by saying why it’s important to encourage more female coders.
Kathryn Carter, General Manager, APAC Snap, says: 
Unfortunately, women are significantly underrepresented in STEM fields, making it important to show that learning how to code is not only extremely beneficial, but it can also be fun. Coding is empowering and gives girls an equal shot. It increases their odds of having well-paid STEM jobs.
