Background: Despite its impact on innovation, gender diversity remains far from fully being achieved in open-source projects. Aims: We examine gender diversity in Hugging Face (HF) organizations, investigating its impact on innovation and team dynamics in open-source development projects. Method: We conducted a repository mining study, focusing on ML model development projects on HF, to explore the involvement of women in collaborative processes. Results: Women are highly underrepresented in both organizations and commits distribution, which is also found when analyzing individual developers. Conclusions: Addressing gender disparities is essential to create more equitable, diverse, and inclusive open-source ecosystems.
