Rise to Impact with #tecHER 2026
Technology is shaping the future of our world, and diverse perspectives are essential to ensuring that future works for everyone. That is why #tecHER was created: a global initiative that inspires, connects, and empowers women in technology while encouraging more people to explore opportunities within the tech industry.
Inspired by real stories, practical advice, and meaningful conversations, #tecHER creates a space where everyone can learn, grow, and feel encouraged to make their mark.
This year's theme, Rise to Impact is a reminder that your skills, ideas, and perspectives matter. Whether you are just starting your career, exploring new opportunities, or already established in your field, #tecHER is designed to help you build confidence, expand your network, and discover new possibilities
To make the experience even more meaningful, we are bringing the celebration closer to home with a local #tecHER Watch Party in Wrocław. Join colleagues and peers for an inspiring morning featuring a keynote session, a lively panel discussion with internal and external speakers, networking opportunities, and a shared viewing of the global #tecHER broadcast.
Expect inspiring stories, fresh perspectives on careers in technology, discussions about innovation and leadership, and the opportunity to connect with people who share a passion for shaping the future. Most importantly, expect to leave energized and reminded of the impact you can make.
Reserve your place today and be part of a global movement that celebrates growth, connection, and the power of diverse voices in technology.
Participation in the event is free of charge.
Rise. Connect. Make an impact.
