SPEAKER & PANELS
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PANEL
Breaking Down the Barriers for Females in Tech
Natalie Pilling
"I strongly believe in the motivational power of role models. Still, today we lack visibility of the many inspiring women that are running businesses. For me, the Female Founders Night is an event to shine the spot light on all these women."
"For me female empowerment means that everybody needs to work on the joined goal to have equal chances in life and work environment regardless of the gender."
Lisa Unkelhäußer
CORPORATE VS. START-UP PANEL
A clash of mind-sets?

Dr. Kati Ernst
"To me, female empowerment means enabling every women to reach her fullest potential and live the life she aspires to have. Passing this core belief on to younger women is a passion of mine - and I enjoy sharing some lifehacks I’ve used and found helpful along the way."
Co-Founder and Managing Director of ooshi GmbH
Kerstin Rothermel
"Women’s empowerment for me doesn’t always need to be a huge battle cry or initiative—you don’t need to move mountains. It’s more about the day-to-day- sponsoring women, investing in women, or even just speaking up and making sure your voice and your colleagues’ voices are heard."
Vice President People & Organization at Flixbus
POLITICS PANEL

Nele Kortendiek

"Imagine a ladder: right now women have to fight to get to the bottom of it, then climb a ladder without steps, while external and internal voices are telling them along the way to stop. Let’s ensure that a ladder is simply a ladder, for all."
Co-Founder & Co-Executive Director of NOW!
Thomas Mandl
"To be given the same chance as anyone to pursue their dreams and to find their purpose - this is what female empowerment is to me. Every women should have this equal opportunity."
Photographer and Activist
SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP PANEL
Beating the Odds: Business for the Greater Good?
Paul Berg
"Female empowerment to me is to be convinced about the fact that sexist modes of thought are so deeply rooted in our society that no one is safe from it and act upon it."
Co-Founder of Good Jobs
Moderation
Michael Aigner
Co-Founder & CTO of Eigensonne
Mary Dinah

Founder and CEO of M.A.D. Hospitality

CEO & Co-Founder of Beneto Food
FINE ARTS PANEL
Combining Creativity and Business
Katharina Wenzel-Wollenbroich

Founder of Aníce.

CEO & Co-Founder of OUTFITTERY
Amber Duettmann
"Women should not be governed by the thought of "unless it's perfect, it's not good enough". Instead - as risk and return go hand in hand - girls should be encouraged to climb on trees, just like women should encourage themselves to build companies."
