The second edition of Women at Voyado starts today – with a great lineup of speakers

Today, we're excited to start this year's Women at Voyado event. It's a week dedicated to shining a light on the achievements of incredible women and sharing their journeys of success in both their personal and professional lives, which have helped shape them into the leaders they are today.

The background of the event was that one of our employees, who wanted to attend the Swedish Women in Tech event, was disappointed upon realizing that the tickets were sold out. However, this disappointment soon transformed into a great idea of hosting a similar event ourselves. Inspired by the idea of providing a platform for women in tech, Women at Voyado came to life.

During the week, Voyado hosts keynote speakers who discuss topics that are closely related to their work and career paths. This is a great opportunity for all employees to gain insights into the challenges they have faced and the successes they have achieved, providing inspiration across the organization.

External speakers
We're thrilled to welcome a group of outstanding guest speakers, each a trailblazer in her field:

Marie Ideström, CEO and co-founder of Womengineer, will discuss her efforts to promote gender equality in engineering and tech and outline her journey toward building more inclusive sectors.

Andrea Möllerberg, Secretary-General of the Swedish Football Association, will talk about leadership in the sports world and the journey to the top in a field traditionally dominated by men.

Elin Ekvall, CCO of Malene Birger, will provide insights into the world of fashion and business, sharing her experiences and learnings as a leader from a long international career in retail.

Panel discussions
Besides the talks from our external speakers, "Women at Voyado" will also feature panel discussions with Voyado's own experts. These discussions will tackle themes crucial to our growth as a company and as individuals:

Scaling Internationally – A discussion with Beatriz Fellenius, Celia Lamberth, and Katherine Bassett on their experiences and strategies for success in international markets.

Leadership - Erica Sandelin Ekelund, Tove Verngren, Elinor Qvant, and Therese Poijes Guimarães share their stories and learnings on leadership.

This event underscores our commitment to diversity and inclusion, particularly in tech, shining a light on exceptional accomplishments and guiding us toward a more equal future.
