WOMEN IN STEM

Prysmian - Women in STEM

We’ve started our diversity and inclusion efforts with our “Side by Side” initiatives; we believed then and we strongly advocate even more now that people create companies and their own values and stories. Being a more supportive and inclusive company also means becoming a better one and more performing one. Our path is made of everyday activities and long-term plans. That’s why we have targets to achieve by 2030 in the area of social sustainability.

One of our goals is to involve +500 women in a fully dedicated STEM program by 2030.

Marquesha-McVea

“I became interested in science and technology at a very young age. I loved math and understanding how things worked and came together. During my career, I had the opportunity to work at different production sites, in Jackson, Tennessee, then in Marshall, Texas. The overall experience has been great. I developed my technical skills and made a lot of wonderful connections within the company. My suggestion to those women who would like to pursue a career in STEM is to do not place yourself in a box: remain open to different ideas and be ready to embrace new opportunities.”

Marquesha McVea, Senior Process Engineer, Lexington SC, North America

Dayan-Miguel-Quintero

“My experience in Prysmian Group has been great. 3 months ago I took the decision to leave my previous job (12 year) for this new opportunity. Today I'm sure it was the best decision. Prysmian is a company to grow up, where the development of human talent comes first, enhancing skills and giving value to products with its people. My professional career development has been constantly supported since I began with programs like STEM it (MAKE it) and mentoring programs. They are part of the tools that make me feel safe and happy with my development and the future in this organization”.

Michiko-Matsusaka

“Generating an impact and global bounding towards diversity and gender equality was the main driver for starting my career within the commercial area here at Prysmian. During my first 2 years, I started to support the Nicaraguan and Caribbean countries which led me to focus my interest on customer delight and service quality. I have been eager to develop my career with an open and global mindset and, few months ago, I took on a new role within the Product Development team for Central America and the Caribbean. I can certainly state that Prysmian has giving me the opportunity to innovate, optimize, and continue adding value to my career while supporting our customers, theirs markets and the business organization as a whole.”

“Working for Prysmian has been, and still is, a very intense journey. Born by chance, like all important stories, from a strong harmony with the values of the Company. A Company that asks a focused commitment for the best result, but which supports and strengthens its own resources. Working at Prysmian means never settling for the obvious, but going further and further, being part of a Team. Working at Prysmian has taught me to be always humble, consistent, clear and sincere. It has given me the opportunity to share my vision of things, put my passion into the things I do every day, together with my Team.”

Marco Giordano, FOS Battipaglia Plant Director, Telecom Business Unit
