The top 5 tech companies according to a quick Google search -> fortune article are apple, HP, IBM, Amazon and Microsoft. 2 CEOs are people of color (bezos and nacelle) one is gay and one a woman.

It's true that Asians are overrepresented in tech. I believe this is, in fact, because more Asians are fit for the job. Do you disagree? Why do you think Asians are overrepresented, and what do you think should be done about it?

Hispanics are typically within the scope of what is referred to by "people of color", sure, but I've never heard that Bezos identifies as Hispanic or has Hispanic ancestry (a stepfather is not an ancestor...)

I suppose, as weird as that sounds to a descendant of Spaniards, but Ted Jorgensen is not Hispanic, as far as I can tell.
