Pre-valentine’s AI & data evening for IT women and friends
AI is the hot potato of the technology field – influencing our lives in more ways than one. But how can we be part of the change and make it positive?
Join us for a lovely evening of talks and insights – along with likeminded women (+ friends) from the world of tech. 🤖🩷
AI is everywhere right now, also making its way into key areas of our society, such as healthcare and media. How is AI changing healthcare, and how can we ensure empathy stays at the heart of it? How is generative AI changing the way we get our news? And how can we turn all the hype into real, positive impact?
Whether you’re a developer, designer, data scientist, or just a fan of AI, this is the perfect chance to connect with others who share your passion – and maybe learn something new in a cozy and inspiring setting.
Bring a friend and enjoy! 🫶🏼
Note: The event is intended for women and gender minorities. There are plenty of events and opportunities out there, so please consider if this event is intended for you. We will not and cannot exclude people since they might be the friends the women invite, and we can’t assume their gender. The main point is to have an event for women and other gender minorities in tech to empower them in this field. If you are not a part of this group and still decide to take part, please respect the event and give space.
