About the webinar
Are you building your career or interested in working in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics)? What challenges are you facing, and how can you overcome them?
Our webinar aims to inspire and support you by hearing the experiences of women who have made it in STEM. They will share valuable insights on issues like leadership, personal development, work-life balance, career support, mentoring, and more.
Join us for a virtual event featuring a keynote address by Professor Simonetta Manfredi, Professor of Equality and Diversity Management and Director of Research & Innovation, Oxford Brookes University.
Speaking alongside our keynote will be several role models from across Europe, all of whom participated in our CALIPER Role Model interviews. They are remarkable women who have made significant contributions to their respective fields, and in sharing their experiences will provide invaluable advice on meeting the opportunities and challenges of a STEM career.
Join us for an engaging and informative webinar that aims to foster a supportive community, encourage collaboration, and empower women to succeed in STEM fields. Together, let’s build a brighter future for the next generation of STEM professionals.
Our webinar is free and open to all.
