EIT

The EIT Community flagship programme for women in entrepreneurship and investment is launching its second edition after a successful 2022.

This year, SUPERNOVAS is bringing fresh new activities in addition to the ones from last year, such as Women2Invest, Rocket Up, and the Women Leadership Programme.

The major SUPERNOVAS update is the Women Investors Community. This will be a space where women investors can learn online, connect with peers and colleagues through networking events, and find opportunities at investment forums.

SUPERNOVAS' consolidation in 2023 is excellent news, especially considering its success last year. This proves that actions and initiatives like this, aimed at increasing gender balance, are still very neccessary.
