In 2023, women still represent a small percentage of corporate technical roles and technology start-up founders. The Femme Forward initiative aims to break down this gender gap. In the following few lines, we will explain the Future Start-up Founders training course: a unique opportunity for women aspiring to be part of the tech entrepreneurial world.

Tackling the gender gap in the technology sector

Astonishingly, only 8% of European companies’ technical roles in cloud computing are held by women [Src. McKinsey]. Furthermore, the number of women founders of tech start-ups in Europe remains shockingly low, below 15% [Src. Startup Genome]. This situation highlights the urgency of breaking gender barriers within the technology sector.

The Femme Forward opportunity

Femme Forward’s Future Start-up Founders course offers women the opportunity to receive free training in technology entrepreneurship: a 60-hour programme over 8 weeks with content delivered online in live and asynchronous mode.

What you will learn

You will have the opportunity to effectively conceive and present your business idea, from the field validation of assumptions to elaborating a solid business model, from refining product development strategies to marketing tactics and the necessary technical fundamentals. 

A comprehensive training experience

The training will not be limited to theoretical lectures. Through interactive workshops, live and asynchronous lectures, tutorials, customised mentoring sessions and participation in talks and networking events, you will acquire both technical and soft skills. This holistic approach will comprehensively prepare you for the challenges of the entrepreneurial world.

Femme Forward is supported by the EU

The Future Start-up Founders course takes place within Femme Forward, an EU-funded project under the Erasmus+ programme and has a consortium of 15 partners, including TOP-IX, from industry, technology and education in 8 European states. 

How to participate?

The training will start on 6 November and will welcome 30 participants. No specific entry skills or prerequisites are required other than curiosity, dedication and the ambition to build one’s future as a technology worker and entrepreneur. If you are interested in this transformative opportunity, you can get more information and apply for selection by filling out this simple form where you can leave your details to be contacted by our team. Training will be delivered mainly in Italian.

Today the European Big Data Value Forum (EBDVF) officially kicks off. This is the flagship event organized by the Big Data Value Association (BDVA) and the European Commission (DG CNECT) which brings together industry professionals, business developers, researchers and policy makers from all over Europe and other regions of the world to promote political action, industrial and research activities in the fields of data and artificial intelligence.

The theme of EBDVF 2021 is “Digital Transformation Powered by Data and Artificial Intelligence”.

In this prestigious and strong context  and proud of BDVA membership, TOP-IX will organize a workshop on Friday 3 December entitled: “Big Data-driven Impact and Value through Entrepreneurship” with the aim of starting a pragmatic discussion on the gap between industry demand and the necessary technical / entrepreneurial skills, particularly in the field of data. Specifically, it will be an opportunity to validate a new format, exploiting and merging the numerous past experiences that include high-level training, the involvement of startups and innovation projects for companies.

After an initial introduction by the TOP-IX team, a virtual round table will follow with prestigious guests of international standing:

• Edward Curry – Professor at Insight Center
• Minna Isomursu – Professor at University of Oulu
• Ana Moreno – Professor at Universidad Politecnica de Madrid (UPM)

Moderated by Leonardo Camiciotti – Executive Director of the Consortium.

To complete the workshop, a video contribution by Alberto Onetti – Mind The Bridge Foundation / Insubria University – and an interactive session with the online public to expand the work and discussion table.
