According to statistical data, more than half of graduates in Hungary are women. However, in the fields of mathematics, science, technology, or informatics (STEM), they are still underrepresented and even underpaid in the technology industry and often face discrimination. Diversity is critical in the technology market, as market players aim to reach as wide a range of their products as possible. Nevertheless, if a woman decides to pursue a career in IT, she faces a number of challenges, which are presented in detail in the present study based on the results of the literature and the author’s own research. However, a comprehensive presentation of the problem is difficult to meet, as the directions are very diverse, so she focused on the individual level. The aim of the research was to explore what causes the passivity of small and medium-sized enterprises in relation to the involvement of women in IT organizations. To achieve this, the author conducted semi-structured qualitative in-depth interviews with 12 women working in IT and three IT company CEOs.
