ABN AMRO Bank Mendix Meetup: Women, Parenthood & Low-Code [In person]
Details
Women, mothers, and parents face unique challenges in tech. How can low-code open new opportunities? How can we create a more inclusive, supportive, and collaborative industry?
Mendix makes tech more accessible, allowing people from diverse backgrounds to build applications. This opens new career paths for women and creates more flexible opportunities for parents balancing work and family.
Join us at ABN AMRO HQ in Amsterdam for a daytime Mendix meetup where we’ll talk about real experiences, not just technology.
👶 Childcare provided.
Parents, bring your kids after school. We provide childcare so you can focus and participate.
Why attend
💡 Women in low-code: Speakers share their journeys and challenges.
👨👧 A father’s perspective: A dad talks about balancing parenthood and a tech career.
💻 The synergy of different working styles: Women tend to be more risk-aware, men tend to act faster — how can we work together better?
✨ Bringing emotions into tech: Technology is often seen as "safe" to discuss, but where is the empathy? Let’s talk about real experiences.

Event format
This is an in-person meetup at the ABN AMRO HQ in Amsterdam.
One of our main goals is to create a safe and open space for sharing personal experiences, so we will not be recording the session. Instead, we’ll put together a short after-movie capturing key moments.
