Are We Making progress?

Across continents, different organisations have been asking similar questions from very different angles: who builds the future, who benefits from it, and what still stands in the way.

After attending the Women in Tech Global Summit, this session offers a grounded perspective on the current state of gender equality, shaped by insights across innovation, technology, and access to emerging industries.

Not a recap. A decoding.

• What narratives are gaining ground?
• Where is the momentum actually shifting, and where is it stalling?
• Which conversations felt urgent, and which felt performative?

Coralie will unpack what surfaced behind the panels: the tensions, the blind spots, the signals worth paying attention to.

Expect a cross-analysis of:

• the evolving language around power, autonomy, and access
• how technology is being positioned as both a tool and a gatekeeper
• the gap between global discourse and lived realities

And most importantly: what all of this means beyond the conference rooms.

Because if these spaces are shaping the direction of gender equality, the real question becomes, how does that translate into the way we work, build, and show up?

The event will include lunch (salads, sandwiches, and soft drinks). If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please email us at events@thenine.be at least 7 days prior to the event.
