00:00The companies that focus on diversity and inclusion are able to generate more profits,
00:10and one of the elements contained in the B7 Flash is the deepening of the Deloitte industry,
00:15elaborated on the occasion of the G7 Industry Stakeholders' Conference,
00:19Bridging Gaps and Building Futures, organized on the side of the G7 Ministry
00:24on equal opportunities in Matera, and that will last until October 6.
00:28Deloitte Italia is the partner of the B7 Italy 2024 Leading the Transition Together,
00:34the private sector and industrial confederations' expression engagement group
00:38established together with the G7 and chaired by Confindustria under the leadership of Emma Marcegaglia.
00:43Diversity must be inclusive of those less representative categories today,
00:48not only for an essential ethical and social issue, but also because it has a totally economic meaning.
00:56Italy is becoming an old country, so competence, experience and reliability coincide a lot with age,
01:06while this is not true.
01:08In a medium-long-term reasoning, it is necessary to invest in training,
01:11so one of the elements emerging from the discussion, for example,
01:15is the lack of female presence in STEM university courses,
01:18those referring to the subjects that concern science, technology, engineering and mathematics,
01:24a fact that is also reflected in entrepreneurship,
01:27with only 8.8% of women choosing self-employment.
01:31In this sense, the appeal of the business world is also addressed to politics.
01:35The Minister for Equal Opportunities, Eugenia Roccella,
01:38has confirmed the desire to support a change of course.
01:42The first inclusion is that of women.
01:44We are not yet a full inclusion of women.
01:47Women are not a minority, they are half of humanity,
01:51and we are still treating women as if they were a minority.
01:55What we are asking for is this.
01:57First of all, we need a cultural change, starting with families,
02:01because there are often stereotypes.
