World Café - The Gender Bug in Tech: Can we fix it together?

Tuesday June 3, 2025 13:40 - 14:40 CEST

13 - Expo Stage

Diversity makes teams better – this is especially true in IT. But women are still underrepresented in technical professions. In this interactive session, Heidi and Ann-Kathrin will combine personal experiences and scientific findings: Why is diversity worthwhile? What skills does IT really need? And what are the myths we finally need to overcome?
In an open World Café roundtable, we will discuss exciting ideas with a clear goal: to inspire men and women alike to make the future of IT more diverse.
Join us – whether you are a career starter, a professional, or a manager!
