We even exceeded our original limit. A strong signal: girls want to understand and shape AI! 🙌

🧠 AI Workshop with Aha Moments
Students from grades 9 to 12 immersed themselves in the world of Artificial Intelligence through an interactive workshop – and realized: AI is already part of their everyday lives!
Whether it’s chatbots like ChatGPT, filters on social media, or AI-generated music and images – they learned how Machine Learning works, with no prior knowledge required, but plenty of curiosity and enthusiasm.

💬 Speed Dating with STEM Role Models
In the second part of the day, participants met four inspiring women from the STEM fields who shared insights into their careers and encouraged the girls to forge their own paths: 🔸 Milen Starke – Q-SOFT GmbH
🔸 Juliane Keith – WIRTSCHAFTSSPIEGEL
🔸 Konstanze Olschewski – Alpha Analytics
🔸 Dr. jur. Nadin Staupendahl – rechTEC Rechtsanwälte
Thank you for your openness, your stories, and your time! 💪

👏 A special thanks to Minister for Economic Affairs Colette Boos-John for taking on the patronage, and to our supporters: European Digital Innovation Hub Thuringia, Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, and VdU - Thuringia Chapter.

🚀 Why are events like this so important?
Because they show that technology is not a question of gender – it’s a question of curiosity!
👉 More women in AI? This is exactly how it’s done!
