With an ongoing gender pay gap of 21.8% according to the latest WGEA figures. For every $1 on average a man makes, women earn 78c. Over the course of a year, that difference adds up to $28,425.
Melbourne, 19 November 2025, The Recalibrate Gender Equity Awards today acknowledges key sponsor Conga, whose platform helps organisations remove friction from contracts, quotes and revenue processes so leaders can focus on building fairer workplaces. The 2025 awards celebrate more than 60 finalists who hold the line on progress despite headwinds, with return entrants showing steady improvement and the Intersectional Company category now featuring four finalists.
“Conga accelerates the journey to become a more connected, intelligent business with AI powered CPQ, CLM and document automation on one platform,” a company overview notes, positioning the technology as a way to simplify how organisations propose, contract, bill, renew and grow.
Why this partnership matters
Conga’s focus on removing operational bottlenecks aligns with what finalists are doing on culture, policy and pay. In recent remarks, Tyler Lovering, Global Vice President & General Manager, Asia Pacific, pointed to three common challenges, managing the “revenue friction zone,” selling into global markets and keeping up with changing customer buying expectations, and argued that connecting siloed systems reduces errors, improves compliance and lifts customer experience. These themes map directly to finalists’ work, translating intentions into reliable practice.
Sponsor comment
“When processes are connected and transparent, leaders get time and clarity back, the right decisions get made faster, and customers and employees feel the difference,” said Tyler Lovering, Global Vice President & General Manager, Asia Pacific, at Conga.
