About the Summit

The Premier Global Platform for Women in Technology
The Women in Tech® Global Summit is the world’s foremost annual gathering dedicated to advancing women and girls in STEM fields. Since its inception, the Summit has established itself as the definitive platform where policy meets practice, vision becomes action, and global leaders commit to measurable change.

Each year, the Summit brings together an unparalleled cross-section of stakeholders—from heads of state and Fortune 500 CEOs to grassroots innovators and emerging entrepreneurs—creating a unique ecosystem where high-level strategic dialogue drives tangible outcomes for millions of women worldwide.

✨ Facilitating strategic partnerships that transcend borders and sectors
✨ Driving policy commitments at the highest levels of government
✨ Celebrating excellence and innovation through our prestigious Awards
✨ Connecting women with opportunities, mentorship, and capital

What Makes Our Summit Unique

Institutional Legitimacy

Operating under the High Patronage of His Excellency Emmanuel Macron, President of France, the Women in Tech® Global Summit commands respect and participation from the highest levels of government and international organizations.

Policy Impact

Our Summits produce tangible outcomes:

• 2025 Osaka Protocol: Historic international commitment signed by heads of state

• Strategic frameworks implemented by multinational corporations

Truly Global Reach

With 65+ established chapters across six continents and delegates from 100+ countries, we represent the most geographically diverse gathering in the women in tech ecosystem.

Four Pillars of Action

Every Summit advances our mission through:

• Education: Skills development and STEM access
• Business: Entrepreneurship and economic opportunity
• Digital Inclusion: Connectivity and accessibility for all

High-Level Networking

Unlike purely corporate conferences or academic symposia, our Summit creates spaces where ministers dialogue with startup founders, where venture capitalists meet social entrepreneurs, and where policy shapers learn from grassroots implementers.
