Empowered in Tech: Women in Tech Netherlands
Welcome to Empowered in Tech: Women in Tech Netherlands Podcast
Born from the mission of the Women in Tech Netherlands community, this podcast aims to educate, inspire, and expand the network of women in technology. Hosted by Ilaria Severi, expert in branding, social media, PR and marketing, guest lecturer and podcast producer, the show features powerful stories from trailblazing women who are breaking barriers, driving innovation, and shaping the future of the tech industry.
As the official chapter of Women in Tech Netherlands, launched in June 2019 at Elsevier’s HQ in Amsterdam, we are part of a global initiative working to close the gender gap by empowering 5 million women and girls to embrace a career or course of study in technology by 2030. Our efforts align with five United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: Gender Equality, Education, Entrepreneurialism, Social Inclusion, and Science, Technology, and Innovation. We are dedicated to equipping women with the skills, confidence, and opportunities to succeed in STEM fields.
