3. DiversIT: Women in IT

We invite you to celebrate DiversIT with us during International Women’s Day! Be prepared to…

♥ be embraced by an inspiring network,
♥ be overwhelmed by the variety of expertise that will be demonstrated,
♥ and experience a safe environment to exchange struggles and success!

A growing group of WomeninIT started joining this DiversIT movement in 2023. Do you typically feel underrepresented in the IT industry? Then this is also your platform to shine, meet like-minds and be curious. We consider International Women’s Day a great date to support gender equality and celebrate DiversIT.

”We strongly believe that making a difference in Cyber Security requires an inclusive company culture and diverse team“, so Eileen Walther from Northwave Cyber Security, initiator of DiversIT. „As such, it keeps on surprising me how homogeneous the group of representatives of the IT industry typically still is. There is this special kind of energy filling the room if ratios are flipped for a change. So be our guest and experience it for yourself!”
