Invitation | F-LANE: Women in Tech – Breaking the Glass Ceiling with federal minister Manuela Schwesig

Dear guest,

Only around nine percent of tech startups are founded by women, and the field of science, tech and engineering is to a large extent shaped by gender-specific disparities. To face this discrepancy, we want to address the obstacles and challenges of women in tech and explore which structural changes are necessary in order to promote women’s participation in tech businesses
