About InspiringFifty
Increasing diversity in tech by recognising female role models and making them more visible
The InspiringFifty programme, run by EQL:HER was established to spotlight the incredible women excelling in tech careers, first in the Netherlands and increasingly around the world.
In 2018, EQL:HER and InspiringFifty teamed up to launch the first UK list in recognition of the wealth of tech talent here.
In June 2022, during the London Tech Week festival, our first Europe-wide awards celebrating the top 50 women in tech across Europe will take place in London.
