Why Thinking Like an Engineer Helps in Any Career

💡 A technical foundation can take you anywhere, whether you choose to build a career in tech or explore entirely different paths.

At this meetup, we’ll explore why technical studies matter far beyond technical skills - and how an engineering mindset can help you navigate any career path with confidence. 🚀

We’ll hear from women who have a background in technical studies and later built careers beyond tech, in fields like fashion, sustainability, entrepreneurship, and content creation.

🎤 Meet our speakers:
✨ Olga Stanciu – Business Consultant & Startups Mentor
✨ Mirela Mazurec – Founder @Spot Cups
✨ Ancuța Chibulcuțean – CPTO @HeyCentric, Founder & Creative Director @Zamsee
✨ Lavinia Dănilă (@lavi.nlume) – Travel Content Creator

🔍 What we’ll explore:
• Why technical education is valuable beyond just technical skills
• How technical studies shape your professional (and personal) life
• How to design your own path, even if it’s not the “expected” one
• Why you shouldn’t be afraid to pivot
