Explore, learn, and dare in technology

Femmes • Startup • Tech is a program designed to offer female students and recent graduates a space to discover the technology ecosystem, develop their skills, and build confidence in their ambitions.

It is a one-year journey, paced by one activity per month, focused on key themes such as exploring careers in tech, leadership and soft skills, innovation, artificial intelligence, data, mentorship, and networking.

Technology is a space for creativity, innovation, and impact. This program was created to support those who wish to explore this field, envision themselves within it, and carve out their own path.
