Diversity Week Aarhus
March 27th - 31st


In 2023, Diversity Week aims to connect women who fund, found, and work in startups. Although diversity is much broader, this year's focus is on gender diversity. We want to create a space, where the gender-minority becomes the majority. Where we acknowledge challenges and explore opportunities & solutions. Sometimes by organising exclusive events for women, but (importantly) also by inviting others to join the conversation.

Some are invitation only, some are open to join. We will keep adding events, so stay tuned...
