About this event

Women Techmakers is Google's global program and brand for women in technology. Every year, in celebration of International Women's Day, WomenTechmakers chapters across the globe host talks, conferences, and workshops to raise awareness of innovative female leaders in technology and inspire others to join the field.

This year, chapters across Europe have come together to host an online European International Women’s Day summit on April 24th. We are planning a day full of inspirational talks and practical workshops.

Our theme for 2021 is based on the incredible strength and power women have shown in the face of adversity. We recognize that there were tremendous challenges over the past year, especially for women, from dealing with COVID to broader issues of racial justice and human rights. But we remain hopeful about the future and the belief that together our community can create positive change throughout the world.

For a full schedule of the event, speakers bio and session descriptions, see below. After the last scheduled session, we have prepared something special for you, which will give you a space to get to know each other and network!

Sessions will be streamed through Youtube, please use this link to see both tracks → http://stream.womentechmakers.eu
