Someone? : come up with the numbers of "tech industry gender ratio"
What is the claimed relevance of the figure for the tech industry?
RIPE doesn't target the tech industry for participation, it targets network operations personnel in all industries.
If a person runs the network for a large bakery they are clearly working in a technology role even if their employer is in the food industry. Employment is a complex Venn diagram. Reference measurements are important so that RIPE can establish whether participants reflect relevant sectors in their countries. We should expect variations in participation by country.
