Working with individuals and organisations from all spectrums of the IT industry. We at DTX want to be part of the change, do you?
Driving change
Whilst we’re continually striving to get better, there is a lot to do...
At DTX, we believe in the power of a diverse workforce and in equal opportunity for all. And, we’re committed to making sure that diversity and inclusion are at the heart of everything we do. From the businesses, organisations and charities that we support, through to our speaker lineups.
"Only one in five tech students are female"
An even more worrying sign is that the percentage of female graduates is lower today than it was more than twenty years ago
"UK tech workforce averages 16% of ethnic minority workers"
"Only 44% of tech employees work at a company with a D&I department"
This means that many tech companies are not paying attention to the issue which contributes to maintaining inequality in the industry
"The total share of women employed in tech does not reach 30% and for black women, the share is under 5% only"
THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE!

Commit with us; speak with us
We’re committed to providing a platform for people from all backgrounds, races, genders, sexualities, ages and religions. If you’d like to nominate yourself or a colleague to speak, please contact us today.
We’re producing better, more diverse speaker line-ups, but we implore the top technology companies and IT teams to think hard about D & I when submitting speakers. At our events last year, 27% of speakers were female for DTX + UCX Manchester & 23% for DTX + UCX Europe. Whilst that is a lot more than the relative representation in the industry, we want to go further. We can’t do it without you.
