#BreakTheBias

For International Women’s Day 2022, we asked our SoapBox colleagues to share their reflections on what IWD means to them.

Here are some of the responses we received:

I see IWD as a way for both women and men to celebrate women, their amazing achievements, and also to shine a spotlight on the areas where there is still a gender bias.

Alanda Corcoran, Senior Sales Operations Manager

For me, International Women’s Day is about my daughter growing up in a world where her gender is never a limitation to her aspirations.

Martyn Farrows, CEO

International Women’s Day can have a different meaning for everyone, but for me it is a day to highlight the great work that my fellow colleagues here at SoapBox Labs do everyday to create an unbiased workplace. #BreakTheBias

Susan Wyer, Office Manager

On this International Women’s Day it’s clear to anyone who picks up a newspaper and reads the headlines that we need more female energy, power, and influence in the world — in business, yes, and in every other facet of our lives too.

Niamh Bushnell, CMO

At SoapBox, we’re proud to have a gender-diverse team across our Engineering, Speech Technology, Product, Sales, and Marketing departments, and know that our diversity is one of our greatest assets. 

Here are a few articles, interviews, and presentations by some of the amazingly talented women at the company, and their incredible contributions to the speech technology industry:

Join us in celebrating all the amazing women out there who inspire us and make the world better everyday. There’s a long way to go to close the gender gap, but we can do it one day at a time by committing to #BreakTheBias. 

Happy #IWD2022!
