THE FEMALE FOUNDERS NIGHT IS GOING INTO THE NEXT ROUND...

How do you transform a discussion that always follows the same patterns? By introducing fresh perspectives! The Female Founders Night 2025, a student-led initiative by Zeppelin University, aims to do exactly that.

This year, we are breaking with tradition: alongside female founders, we’re inviting male founders and other forward-thinkers – entrepreneurs, innovators, investors, and doers – to join us in discussing, inspiring, and provoking conversations around one central theme: “Female Entrepreneurship.”

Our goal? To dive deeper. Why do all-male or all-female teams dominate? What unique dynamics do mixed teams bring to the table? And most importantly: what defines the ideas and qualities that women contribute to entrepreneurship?

Zeppelin University’s interdisciplinary approach makes the Female Founders Night the perfect platform for bringing contrasting perspectives together in a productive way, challenging preconceived notions and fostering new insights.

At ZU, we embrace an interwoven and creative environment, where every year we demonstrate how diverse positions create the kind of tension needed to question the status quo and expand our views.

Join us in rethinking boundaries and reshaping what’s possible! Let’s explore the world of entrepreneurship together – openly, creatively, and brimming with fresh perspectives.
Mark your calendars: October 10, 2025, at our campus in Fallenbrunnen 3, Friedrichshafen.

We can’t wait to hear from you and welcome you to the shores of Lake Constance!

MISSION

To challenge traditional perspectives on entrepreneurship by fostering meaningful dialogue, encouraging diversity, and amplifying the role of women in the startup ecosystem. Through the Female Founders Night, we aim to create a platform that inspires innovation, connects interdisciplinary thinkers, and sparks new ideas. Our goal is to reshape boundaries, provoke new ways of thinking, and build a more inclusive entrepreneurial future.

VALUES

Giving female entrepreneurship a stage.

We offer female founders a platform to share their experiences, integrating perspectives from male founders and forward-thinkers to encourage critical thinking and insight into other viewpoints.

Join forces. 

We believe that true innovation happens when diverse perspectives come together. That’s why we unite founders and forward-thinkers across disciplines to foster collaboration, spark inspiration, and challenge one another's thinking.

De-tabooing and provoking thoughts.

We embrace the uncomfortable to foster growth. By addressing overlooked topics and challenging established norms, we ignite bold conversations that inspire new perspectives and drive lasting change.
