What happens when men become true allies in empowering women in tech?

In this eighth capsule of our Brilliantly Branded Podcast mini-series, we’re featuring Jan Demey, Managing Director and CEO of a global healthcare consulting group.

As the first male guest on Capsules, Jan shares his unique perspective on why more women belong in tech and leadership—and how men can play a crucial role in breaking down barriers.

At the Women in Tech Europe Awards, Jan was deeply inspired by the perseverance and mission-driven mindset of the women in the room. He also reflected on how leadership in business should mirror the values we hold in our personal lives—how we treat our mothers, daughters, and wives should align with how we lead female colleagues in the workplace.

We discuss:

• Why 80% of his team is made up of women—and what makes them thrive in leadership.
• How technology and healthcare are deeply connected and why diversity in tech matters.
• The role men can play in empowering more women to enter and grow in STEAM careers.
• 
  

🔑 Key Takeaways:

1. True empowerment means recognizing strengths, not creating division between men and women.
2. Leadership starts with respect—at home and in business.
3. Change is difficult, but it must be embraced to build a more inclusive future.
