More about Femmegineering

Femmegineering is an initiative that aims to build a female programmers community by launching educational events, providing free access to IT education and mentorship by industry leaders, as well as organizing hackathons to power innovative solutions for a better world. Founded by Sigma Group in Sweden, Femmegineering aims to contribute to a more equal technology industry by making female role models more visible and creating an inclusive environment where they are equipped with the tools and resources to build successful careers in the tech sector. 

Sigma Software Group decided to take the initiative to a new level and scale it to the Emerging European countries. Since most of the refugees who fled from Ukraine are women and are sole breadwinners for their families, this initiative will practically help families affected by the war by creating job opportunities for women.
