For this year’s International Women’s Day, the Diversity Office at the Lucerne School of Computer Science and Information Technology (HSLU-I) is hosting an evening focused on the official theme "Give to Gain." We believe that sharing expertise and opening doors for others is what actually drives industries forward.
The free event will be held in English and is open to ALL who are interested in the intersection of leadership, technology, and diversity.
Come for the insights, stay for the apéro, and meet some new people who share your interests.
