MD of UK Web and IT Hosting Solutions Provider Memset to Jump Everest
To facilitate the jump the skydivers will have parachutes that are three times bigger than standard parachutes and wear skydiving oxygen systems. The skydivers will also wear thermal jumpsuits and headgear as they expect to encounter temperatures of –40 degrees Celsius. In addition, the jump has been “precision scheduled to avoid the 200 mph jet stream that roars across Everest's summit”. “I would like to hope that my involvement in this high profile activity will make more people aware of the issues facing women in IT,” explained Ms. Craig-Wood. “I’m committed to finding innovative ways of helping to attract girls into IT, and supporting CC4G is just one way we can help address the imbalance in the industry.” CC4G is run by e-skills UK and supported by the Department for Education and Skills (DfES). The objective of the organization is to raise technology skills amongst girls “while transforming their attitudes to careers in IT”. Only 16% of British technology workers are female and the gender pay gap is 23% - one of the worst in any profession in the UK. Memset was established in 2002 and offers flexible dedicated server packages “on a fair and scalable pricing model”. The development of their Miniserver™ technology has enabled Memset to be recognized as the leading developer and supplier of virtual dedicated server systems in the UK. The company is Britain's first Carbon Neutral ISP. |
