Who is it for?
Women in STEM
We welcome women from academia, education and industry, who work in any role with the broadest possible definition of STEM.
Advocates for gender equality
From women's network organisers to diversity officers to volunteers and staff at campaigning groups, all advocates are welcome, whether men or women.
Businesses
STEM businesses, large or small, who want to support their female staff and advocates can buy seats in bulk to provide long-term mentorship and support.

Mentoring is a powerful way for people to improve their career prospects and successfully meet career challenges, yet 73% of the women in STEM that we surveyed had never had a mentor. The Finding Ada Network wants to change that and make sure that all women have access to mentorship, no matter where they work or how often they change jobs or institutions.
Benefits for businesses
Improve staff retention
Mentoring has been shown to increase staff retention by 25%, reducing turnover and the cost of recruiting and on-boarding replacement staff.
Reduce the gender pay gap
Mentoring increases promotion rates by 5x for mentees and 6x for mentors, and increasing the number of women at senior levels helps decrease the gender pay gap.
Improve job performance
Mentoring improves job performance in 58% of participants, and access to useful, relevant and actionable information increases efficiency and reduces frustration.
