Empowering Women Mentoring
For the sixth time, we will ceremoniously end the six-month comprehensive mentoring program for 60 talented women from companies at EPD, to support their competences by offering a selection of 70+ mentors and topics, and to connect their professional network with thousands of EPD participants.
Academy for Women Entrepreneurs
Every year, the project for Czech businesswomen offers networking for 45 current students of the AWE Academy as well as Alumni graduates, including the opportunity to present their business at the AWE Market.
Equal Pay Day is going international
Thanks to the cooperation with the Central European Initiative (CEI), we regularly include foreign personalities from European countries in the program. Long-term cooperation created, among other outputs, a Manifesto that supports women’s empowerment.
Wonder Women
As part of the Equal Pay Day 2022 campaign, we pointed out that there is still a lack of female role models in the public space who would help junior women show the way, build self-confidence and use shared experiences to succeed in their careers.
Since 2010, with the help of our own activities, we have been diligently presenting so-called Role models and their professional skills, which can be an inspiration and courage to other women and help them understand the importance of equal representation of women.
