Autumn 2020 STEM Women Events Announced!

We are delighted to announce our autumn online event line-up. Nine events will take place virtually across October and November. The online format will enable us to reach students across entire regions, rather than limiting the event to those living in the venue city, meaning more students can ‘attend’ than ever before!

Two of our events will be industry focused, namely our ‘Technology Event’ and our ‘Financial Services’ events. Students attending these events will be studying a STEM degree, and will have a desire to work in these industry sectors. The other events will be location focused, meaning attendees will be based within a particular region, studying a STEM subject and interested in working in a range of different STEM industries.

See the full line up here:​

1. Financial Services Event: 22nd September 2020

This event will attract students studying STEM subjects across the UK, interested in a career in financial services. Last years’ event took place in Westminster and attracted a high calibre of students.

2.Technology Event: 28th September 2020

This event will attract students studying a STEM subject and interested in a career in technology. As a dual event, it will also attract women with 1-5 years’ experience, and employers can choose to exhibit at the graduate part of the event only, the experienced part only, or both parts!
