The Women in Tech Global Summit is a 3-day event happening on the 30th, 31st May and 1st June 2022 under the High Patronage of Ms. Elisabeth Moreno, French Minister for Gender Equality, Diversity and Equal Opportunities. The theme ‘HERoes Shaping tomorrow’, celebrates women across the world who are the Shakers, Makers and Innovators of our new society and economy. The Summit will kick off in Paris on Monday 30th for 3 days of content. Its aim is to inform, inspire and catalyze collective efforts to reduce the gender and digital gap in STEM by 2030.

The first day will begin with leadership and Tech Trends workshops and will be followed by high level peer-to-peer sessions and hard-problem solving roundtables where participants will engage more closely to share knowledge, define common projects and set-up a roadmap driving accountability. On May 31st, the main conference will take place with a rich program including inspiring plenary sessions, keynotes and a gala dinner. The third day will be dedicated to technical visits and business to business meetings. Our ambition is to have deliberations by the end of the summit which will be implemented worldwide with measurable impact.

The event will gather aproximately 300 delegates: thought leaders from business, civil society, Government and the Arts, representing 30 different countries – the Makers, Shakers, and Innovators of a new era, driven by the desire to change the status quo. The HERoes who are shaping tomorrow.
