Women in Chemistry Network - Positive Partnerships

On February 11, The International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we are happy to invite you to an inspiring Women in Chemistry afternoon. The theme, Positive Partnerships, revolves around the power of connections, both within chemistry and beyond, in a professional and personal context.
 

Date: Tuesday February 11, 2025
Time: 16.00 - 20.00 hrs, with walking dinner
Location: Bossche Brouwers aan de Vaart, Tramkade 24, 5211 VB ’s-Hertogenbosch
Public Transport: 10 min walk from NS Station ’s-Hertogenbosch

We have invited three inspiring speakers from completely different backgrounds who will shine their light on the theme ‘Positive Partnerships’. So at the end of the afternoon we might know the answer to the question: are women better partners than men?

Enjoy an afternoon filled with personal stories and plenty of opportunity to make new connections with other Women in Chemistry during the drinks and walking dinner. Note that this year the program will be held in English.
