Project Grace – 2023 Data & Business Analyst Graduate Program

Introducing Project Grace

To help close the gender gap in the tech sector we created Project Grace, a Graduate Program designed to empower women for success in their dream tech careers. Named after Grace Hopper, a pioneering female American computer scientist and mathematician, the program’s goal is to inspire graduates to dream big and aim high. As the inventor of the first computer compiler, leading to the development of COBOL, an early programming language, Grace sets us a shining example.
