GoDaddy Inc., the company that empowers everyday entrepreneurs, today announces its participation in GIZ’s ProGirls Programme. Through the esteemed programme, GoDaddy will offer middle school students an exciting work experience opportunity by interning with GoDaddy MENA team. With a commitment to promoting diversity in technology, GoDaddy aims to maximise the potential of these interns and support inclusion of women in all fields of business, including the technology and computer engineering sectors.
GoDaddy is providing middle school girls (14 – 17 years old) with a virtual summer internship learning how GoDaddy supports its customers across EMEA, including in the MENA region. They will also experience job-shadowing with a female GoDaddy executive that allows them to shadow the GoDaddy executive in her daily work tasks. They will also be given the opportunity to support a variety of projects to learn and provide experience across a variety of work functions.
“We are thrilled to be participating in this valuable programme as it aligns with our own mission to empower everyday entrepreneurs and make opportunity more inclusive for all. The importance of this partnership also extends to our support of Egypt’s vision to build female capabilities while encouraging them to embrace Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools and solutions,” said Selina Bieber, Senior Director of GoDaddy Middle East and Africa.
