PWN Nice Cote d'Azur Newsletter - February 2023
UPCOMING EVENTS
PWN Nice IWN 8th of March - joint event with EDHEC Business School
When: 08 March 2023, 18:30, Joya Lifestore
International Women’s Day (IWD) theme this year is: “DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality”.
Bringing women into technology results in more creative solutions and has greater potential for innovations that meet women’s needs and promote gender equality. Their lack of inclusion, by contrast, comes with massive costs: as per the UN Women’s Gender Snapshot 2022 report, women’s exclusion from the digital world has shaved $1 trillion from the gross domestic product of low- and middle-income countries in the last decade—a loss that will grow to $1.5 trillion by 2025 without action.
Let’s all help each other to make sure women are brought into technology.
Be part of celebrating IWD together with us and get inspired by our panel of women who make a difference.
Sign up now – seats are limited.

AGM Registration is now open!
Our annual AGM will be held via Zoom on March 21, 2023. The PWN Nice-Cote D'Azur Board members are ready to share with all of you, our valued members, the activities carried out during this past year and the new plans for 2023. This year, we have moved back to more in-person events, and we're planning even more face-to-face events for this coming year. However, to allow maximum number of members to attend, we have decided to keep the AGM on Zoom for 2023.
The AGM is a great opportunity for members to meet and communicate with the Board. It allows all members to get an update on last year's achievements, review the annual accounts and adopt them, and have an update on our plans and priorities for 2023.
We are always looking for volunteers to support the activities of PWN Nice Côte d’Azur. The more we have people contribute their skills and volunteer, the better the network will be able to serve the needs of our members and community.
