The finalists for the 2025 Diversity in Tech Awards (DITA) have been announced today. Taking place on Thursday, 19th September at 6:00 pm in a new location—the Gibson Hotel, Dublin—the event will gather over 300 guests to honour individuals and organisations leading the way in diversity, inclusion, and innovation across the tech sector.
Now in its eighth year, DITA celebrates a broad spectrum of diversity—from gender and culture to disability and neurodiversity—and continues to spotlight the changemakers reshaping the tech industry for the better. This year saw more than 300 entries, with the Rising Star and Startup Visionary awards attracting the highest number of submissions.
Claire Rushe, Executive Director Global Technology of JP Morgan and a member of the judging panel, said;
“JP Morgan is thrilled to continue our partnership with the Diversity in Tech Awards in 2025. This year, we reaffirm our commitment to fostering an environment where diverse perspectives drive innovation and opportunity. These awards honour the trailblazers who are making the tech industry more inclusive, aligning with our belief that technology thrives when every voice is heard and valued.
This is an opportunity to recognise those who think outside the box, driving ingenuity and progress through diverse insights. By supporting these awards, we not only honour the groundbreaking strides being made but also reinforce our commitment to fostering a tech landscape where bold ideas and inclusive thinking lead the way.”
Clare Kilmartin, COO of the Diversity in Tech Awards, added, “The 2025 finalists represent the very best of what our industry has to offer—bold thinkers, brilliant innovators, and inclusive leaders who are breaking down barriers in every direction. These awards are a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we create space for all talent to thrive. I look forward to celebrating them in style this September.”
