Our goal is to ensure that there is a diverse and gender balanced workforce across the specific areas of: engineering, technical operations, sales, marketing and business.
We aim to open up more opportunities for women through holding regular networking events and seminars, our annual mentoring programme, as well as celebrating the skills and achievements with our Rise Awards. We are also working for a more diverse and inclusive sector through our new schools outreach programme, Rise Up.
The women that will benefit from joining Rise will be in non-craft roles in any type of broadcast manufacturer, service provider or end user.
Rise Awards 2020
The Rise Awards are a celebration of the outstanding talent, skills, expertise and achievements of exceptional women across the broadcast technology and services sectors.
We have received over 100 submissions this year from across the global broadcast audience including manufacturers, broadcasters and service providers.
This year, the Rise Awards will be hosted by Jayne de Ville, DPP Marketing Manager, as part of the DPP Tech Leaders’ Briefing 2020.
This 45 minute event will be taking place on Tuesday 17 November, starting at: 18:45 GMT / 19:45 CET / 13:45 EST / 10:45 PST.
