Viya, the premier telecommunications provider in the US Virgin Islands, led by the trailblazing, Caribbean woman Geraldine Pitt, celebrates Women\u2019s History Month.<\/p>\n\n
CEO Pitt stated, \u201cAs Women\u2019s History Month is being commemorated, Viya aligns with the International Women\u2019s Day theme, \u201cDigitall: Innovation and Technology for gender equality\u201d. As the first woman to lead the premier communications and technology solutions provider in the USVI, I am proud to represent and be supported by other strong women on my team, who are daring greatly and embracing careers in technology.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
While women have always been leaders and educators in this community, the presence of women in technology roles has always been the modus operandi at Viya. Viya is leading the VI in gender equality in the technology space, which is still male-dominated. As one of the largest employers in the Territory, Viya can take pride in the fact that approximately 40% of our workforce are women and 40% of our management team are women.<\/p>\n\n
At Viya, women are regularly recruited to and promoted from within the talented ranks, and they are critical decision-makers, who are actively participating in reshaping the organization to be the most competitive provider of connectivity in the USVI. Moreover, Viya\u2019s support for gender equality also extends to its extensive community support for innovation and women\u2019s initiatives from the classroom to the executive board room.<\/p>\n\n
\u201cThroughout the month, Viya will showcase women, who will tell their stories about their roles at Viya, their roles in the community, and how they are actively working to foster gender equality. Join us as we applaud the efforts of the women in our community, particularly at Viya, whose contributions to innovation and technology have kept us connected to the community and the world,\u201d concluded Pitt.<\/p>\n\n###\n\n
