In 2016…

We were thrilled to be back in the beautiful city of Barcelona for our second g4g day @Barcelona, Spain, in partnership with the fabulous Cisco team!

This year, invited 200 girls aged 10-14 to participate in interactive workshops to discover STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math). This whole exciting and free event will take place in the buildings of the Department of Telecommunications and the Department of Computer Science of the AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow! The girls had the opportunity to explore hands-on workshop and interact with role-models from the profession.

See below for photos of the event!
