At Booking.com, our diversity gives us strength. We know that the more diverse we are, the more perspectives, skills and experiences we have, the closer we get to making it easier for everyone to experience the world.

We know that women have low representation in tech roles. Historically women enter tech roles at a lower rate than men and as a result, there is a lower market supply of women in tech. At Booking.com, we have a number of initiatives aimed at supporting women’s careers into tech both within Booking.com and in society.
