This represents a fundamental pillar for progress, a competitive advantage, and a core business strategy. **![](https://hubspot.workwithplus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-04-2026-05-10-02-1190-PM.png?width=715&height=402&name=undefined-Mar-04-2026-05-10-02-1190-PM.png)**  Ensuring the equal integration of women in the workplace is the primary vehicle through which the private sector can contribute to the United Nations 2030 Agenda, fostering a more just, inclusive, and transparent society. To consolidate and deepen this mission, on February 24th, our CEOs and co-founders of DVelop and WorkWithPlus, Paula Gallotti and Joaquín Álvarez, signed the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) of UN Women.  #### **The Importance of Reflecting These Principles in Corporate Culture ** By becoming part of the WEPs global corporate network, we undertake concrete commitments that align directly with the official principles of this global framework. In accordance with Principle 2, we commit to ensuring equal pay, guaranteeing equal remuneration for work of equal value — a fundamental pillar of fair treatment. In addition, we foster team growth through our DevPath career plan, provide training opportunities for young people through DVelop Academy, and encourage high school seniors (11th and 12th grade) to explore and choose careers in technology. We understand that promoting inclusion also helps create a better balance between personal and professional life; therefore, we operate under a hybrid work model. All of these initiatives drive us to integrate a gender perspective and inclusion from the design stage through to the development of technological solutions. This year, we also joined the [“Give To Gain” campaign for International Women’s Day](https://www.internationalwomensday.com/Theme), an initiative that promotes generosity, collaboration, and reciprocity to advance gender equality in workplaces and society.   ![#GiveToGain](https://hubspot.workwithplus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/%23GiveToGain.gif?width=781&height=781&name=%23GiveToGain.gif)   #### **The Current Landscape: Global and National Data ** Women’s participation in the Information Technology (IT) sector, both globally and in Uruguay, reveals a scenario where significant gaps persist in employment, leadership, and education. Globally, women hold only 28% of positions in science and engineering. This figure is even more concerning in cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence, where female representation drops to 22% (CUTI, 2024). Data from Uruguay’s IT sector show stagnation and even a slight recent decline: women represent only 33% of total employment in the Uruguayan IT industry. In technical, development, management, and executive roles nationwide, women’s participation ranges between just 12% and 24%. #### **Our reality at DVelop** At DVelop Software Solutions and WorkWithPlus, female participation is a priority supported by concrete actions that demonstrate it is possible to break traditional paradigms in the country’s technology industry. Currently, our indicators show a strong female presence: women represent 37% of our entire team and hold 60% of strategic leadership positions. These figures exceed the sector average in Uruguay. #### **What are the benefits of building teams with strong female representation? ** Promoting equity in the technology and corporate sectors is vital for the following reasons: - **It boosts profitability:** Equal participation of women at all business levels leads to stronger financial performance. - **It fosters innovation:** Diverse teams bring varied perspectives and unique experiences that enhance creativity and directly drive innovation. - **It builds stronger teams:** Gender-balanced teams (men and women) perform better, overcome unconscious biases, and are highly complementary. - **It ensures ethical development:** When women are part of the development process, technology can become one of the most powerful tools for removing barriers and fostering fair systems. Because at the end of the day, equality is good business — and the future of technology must necessarily represent all of us. Let’s continue moving forward together.   > Know more about this author: > > ![](https://hubspot.workwithplus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Cami%20round.png?width=120&height=120&name=Cami%20round.png) > > > **Lic.
