We are a community-driven initiative bringing empowerment, knowledge, and active collaboration via education, research, events, and blogging.

What initially started with a small Facebook group has grown into a powerful community with more than 10.000 members (and counting) in 140 countries.

Our team is working on mentorship programs, a youth activation program, an inclusive talent fair, and accelerator programs.
