PreviousCheckSig partners with SheTech to advance Gender Equality in the crypto industry
March 5, 2026 - Staff
The goal is to reduce barriers to entry and promote a more representative and informed culture of innovation.
Milan, March 5, 2026 - CheckSig, the first Italian crypto fintech to obtain gender equality certification, announces a new partnership with SheTech, a non-profit organization committed to empowering women in technology, digital innovation, and entrepreneurship.
The collaboration is built around two strategic objectives:
- Engaging a broader external audience - particularly women - with crypto assets and digital finance through educational initiatives and joint discussion forums.
- Promoting structured internal training and awareness programs within CheckSig focused on inclusion culture and female leadership development.
”We believe technological innovation creates greater value when it is truly accessible,” said Concetta Ingrassia, Chief Marketing Officer at CheckSig. ”This vision translates into a concrete commitment to fostering cultural change and encouraging more balanced female participation in digital finance - an industry that still faces significant gender disparities.”
The initiative is part of a broader effort to strengthen corporate governance. As emphasized by Francesca Motisi, Head of Compliance and Complaints at CheckSig and Gender Equality Management System Officer, inclusion and equality are not merely ethical principles, but structural components of responsible management: ”Investing in education and awareness helps reinforce business sustainability and lays the foundation for balanced growth across the entire digital asset ecosystem.”
The partnership will be officially presented during the SheTech & CheckSig Tech Drinks event, scheduled for Thursday, April 16, from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM at Copernico - Blend Tower in Milan. The event will offer an opportunity to hear stories from professionals in the tech and digital sectors, engage in meaningful discussions, and connect with the community in an informal setting.
”Partnering with organizations like CheckSig enables us to bring the topic of gender inclusion into highly technological and high-impact sectors such as crypto,” commented Elena Sacchi, Event and Communication Specialist at SheTech, highlighting the shared goal of lowering access barriers and promoting a more representative and inclusive culture of innovation.
Through this partnership, CheckSig reaffirms its commitment to fostering an inclusive corporate culture and contributing to the development of a more equitable, sustainable, and responsible crypto ecosystem.
