Breaking the Bias in the Defence Sector
Laikipia, Kenya (Mar. 24, 2022) — Ravenswood Technologies Kenya Limited (RTKL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ravenswood Solutions, Inc., supports the British Army and Kenya Defence Forces in their training at the British Army Training Unit in Kenya (BATUK) by providing Training Simulation Services. This support includes training exercises on instrumentation, weapon simulators, battlefield effects, and instrumented after-action reviews (I-AARs).
Since its establishment, RTKL has been committed to accelerating and achieving gender parity and inclusivity by encouraging women to venture into Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics. Recently, the Company undertook recruitment for various engineering positions and onboarded four ladies who comprised 45% of our new technical recruits. Traditionally, the Defence sector has been viewed as a male dominated sector and Ravenswood and RTKL is proud to challenge this stereotype by Breaking the Bias surrounding women working in the Defence field.
As the World celebrates the contribution of Women in the month of March, RTKL chooses to celebrate and welcome our new team members for being frontrunners in our field. We at Ravenswood support, advocate for and take the lead in acknowledging women who are great at what they do and whose contribution to Ravenswood is unmatched.
Let’s #BreakTheBias
