EP.15 - Manara - Iliana Montauk, CEO - Opening the door for tech talent from Middle East and North Africa

In this episode we are speaking to Iliana Montauk, founder of Manara whose  mission is to unlock the human potential of the Middle East and North Africa. They are building a community committed to diversifying the global tech sector while uplifting the economies of the Middle East and North Africa, with a focus on Palestine and women. Engineers and other professionals from top tech companies & startups join them to pay it forward. The why for this is down to 2 numbers:  52% CS grads in Palestine are women, 83% female CS grads in Palestine are unemployed. And they believe this region will soon be known globally for the caliber of its tech talent. Join me for a deep dive in the journey of Manara, so far and how together we can create so much more impact.
