🎉 EXIST Women 2024 closing event: We celebrate innovation and community! On November 27, 2024, the celebratory closing event of the #EXISTWomen program by Science & Startups took place in Techspace Berlin. Together with our partners TU Berlin, HU Berlin and FU Berlin, we celebrated the successful completion of an exciting qualification and mentoring program. All in all we had 30 #EXISTWomen participants 💥 Every university was able to support 10 women with this scholarship program. 💥 10 Women by Freie Universität Berlin 💥 10 Women by Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin 💥 10 Women by Technische Universität Berlin On behalf of all scholarship holders these #EXISTWomen received their certificates: Aylin, Micaela, Franziska, Sophie, Nikol, Ulla, Marcela and Bengisu 💛 Thank you and it's great that you were there! A look back at a year full of growth: 🔹 Advice, mentoring & training: Tailor-made support for the personal and professional development of our female founders. 🔹 Networking: Valuable contacts were made, experiences shared and mutual support strengthened. 🔹 Certificates: The participants were proudly and deservedly presented with their final certificates. 🔹 Community: In a relaxed atmosphere, people ate, drank and strengthened the feeling of being part of a supportive network. The 2024 program is now coming to an end, but the successes, experiences and connections that have been made remain. Together we have shown how powerful the promotion of female start-ups can be through cooperation and commitment. Special thanks go to Katja Brunner for coordinating the program and to our partners, especially the great mentors and the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz (BMWK) and Projektträger Jülich (PtJ) for the financial support. 🤝 We celebrate the power of community and look forward to the future successes of our participants! 👉 You can find more information about the new funding start in 2025 in the comments.
