Ask Female* Founders - Women in Tech community

We have regular events with inspiring female* tech founders / women in tech where you are  encouraged to ask your questions and build your network with other (future) founders and other supporters of diversity in tech.

And what are the key steps to bringing a product to market?</h3>Climbers Marta and Manuela combine passion with purpose: through their sustainability-focused startup, they were accepted into the Berliner Startup Stipendium and began piloting their idea within the climbing community. They built the world’s first climbing route made from mushrooms!Later, they gained support from accelerators and successfully took part in several startup awards.
