Cyberjaya – In a landscape where innovation knows no bounds, fostering diversity and inclusivity in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields is imperative. With this goal in mind, we are thrilled to announce the inaugural Women in STEM Empowerment (WiSE) event, scheduled to take place on the 28th of May 2024 at IMU University in Persiaran Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur.

WiSE transcends being merely an event; it represents a movement aimed at empowering and cultivating an inclusive ecosystem among educational institutions and industry partners to advance women's empowerment in STEM. Through networking opportunities, the showcasing of products or technologies, engaging discussions, and hands-on workshops, WiSE endeavors to dismantle barriers and lay the groundwork for the next generation of female leaders in STEM.

Key Highlights of the WiSE Event Include:

  1. Inspirational Keynote Speakers: Esteemed leaders and trailblazers in STEM will share their personal journeys, insights, and experiences, igniting attendees' determination to pursue their passions fearlessly.
  2. Panel Discussions: Thought-provoking panel discussions will delve into topics concerning vibrant intellects and resilient futures within the professional sphere.
  3. Interactive Workshops: Hands-on workshops will equip attendees with invaluable skills encompassing women in STEM, leadership development, fostering professional growth, beauty and health.
  4. Networking Opportunities: WiSE offers a dynamic platform for attendees to connect, collaborate, and forge meaningful relationships with like-minded individuals and industry experts.
  5. Exhibition: A bespoke exhibition will spotlight products, services, and technologies dedicated to advancing STEM inclusivity, celebrating diversity across various backgrounds and domains.

 

Why WiSE Matters:

Despite strides forward, gender disparity in STEM persists as a formidable challenge. WiSE recognizes this issue and endeavors to provide a nurturing environment where women can flourish. By fostering a supportive community and offering resources for skill development and networking, WiSE aims to bridge this gap and pave the way for a more inclusive future for STEM professionals.
