Then, they got annoyed at me and started having design meetings and not tell me where they were.” – Sheri Graner Ray, videogame designer. “My surname is Andrew, so people kept asking who was this Andrew that I collaborated with and if he was the one who did the technology side of my work.” - Gretchen Andrew, NFT Artist.“At the first conference I did, somebody asked me whose girlfriend I was and I had to say “no, I’m presenting”.  - Emily Holmes, Neuroscientist.   Women have fought their way to the top in fields that have been male dominated for years, yet, they still face challenges in gaining investment, being acknowledged as experts and being included at the highest level.
