Role Models: A New “Gründerinnenzeit”
When
Where
Calling for a new “Gründerinnenzeit”: An in-depth conversation about the challenges and opportunities for women founders in Germany.
The 2021 "Germany: Female Founder Nation?" Report, published in partnership with Handelsblatt (WirtschaftsWoche), discovered that Germany still faces a huge gap in gender equality (- 0.4 points below EU average score).
Join us for a deep dive into the data with Julia Ehlert-Hoshmand, Senior Economist for Handelsblatt Research Institute, followed by a panel discussion with Maria-Liisa Bruckert (SQIN), Dr. Vivien Dollinger (ObjectBox), Christina Burkhardt (SHIFTSCHOOL) and Mayra Frank (Google for Startups) where we will chat about the importance of role models, as well as the challenges and opportunities for women founders in Germany.
