ABOUT US
Launched by the European EdTech Alliance in January 2022, the Female EdTech Fellowships were founded in response to the persistent gender gap within the rapidly growing EdTech industry. Despite EdTech being a critical driver of innovation in education, studies have continuously shown that female founders and other leaders remain significantly underrepresented in the sector. Our mission is to change this narrative.
Through our programming, we provide access to learning and networking opportunities that foster gender diversity and inclusion. By empowering women in EdTech, we seek to catalyse a more equitable ecosystem that reflects diverse perspectives. This, in turn, drives more innovative and effective solutions in EdTech.
Our Impact
Our fellowships have already made a significant impact, creating a network of over 75 impressive female founders across 22 countries in Europe. This growing community exemplifies the potential of women in EdTech, showcasing diverse voices and ideas that fuel progress in education technology.
As our community grows, we are continuously refining and adding new tracks to our programming. These tracks are designed to address the evolving needs of women in the EdTech sector, ensuring they have the tools and opportunities necessary to thrive.
