Upcoming Series of Masterclasses

Starting in late 2026, Womenize! will launch a new series of masterclasses for the German video games industry.

As part of a publicly funded project, a series of innovative and sometimes even experimental formats will be held at various locations in Germany in collaboration with regional gaming hubs, focusing on topics such as leadership, career development, startup founding, and financing.

The formats are aimed at women across different stages of their careers from those just starting out to experienced professionals with a particular focus on the games and tech industries. The goal of our W! Masterclasses is to impart knowledge, promote exchange, and support women in establishing themselves in the industry over the long term. Through parctical sessions, expert insights and peer exchange, participants will gain knowledge, connections and tools they can apply to their careers.

More data, more visibility, more impact

The project is accompanied by structured data collection to better understand the experiences, needs and challenges of women in the gaming industry. The gained insights will help to further develop future programs and initiatives in a targeted manner. At the end of the project, a joint networking and exchange event is planned with representatives from the industry and partner networks, during which the project’s results will be presented and discussed.
