This is our monthly networking event allowing you to get in contact with the EWMD Forum board members face to face.
Every first Tuesday of a month we meet at 7.30pm at the group meeting point in the middle of the great hall of Zurich Central Station (the one where you find the protecting angel of Niki de Saint Phalle). We then decide together where to go to have a drink and inspiring discussions. The place will be chosen in a way that allows you to also have a snack (but no "full dinner").
Feel free to register at any time in advance.

"From Artificial to Augmented - Harnessing AI to Enhance our Thinking"
8/1/2026
I am the founder of the Academy of Future Skills, which is a community of learning practice, a think-tank and a consultancy on the future of our skills. I like to think of myself as a Digital Humanist. I’m a bridge builder between humans and tech - two things that are inherently intertwined but too often artificially separated. I am helping companies to draw on their full digital potential to create a better product, service or working environment. Using my method of explaining digital things accessibly and with minimal buzzwords, I have influenced many colleagues and clients to ease their operations. I am also an activist on diversity and equality in the digitalization sphere and help underrepresented groups to gain a voice in the process of creating the future.

Explore the transformative potential of AI with our upcoming event series "From Artificial to Augmented" course. This program explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and business strategy, with a focus on enhancing human thinking by embracing machine interactions. The 12 sessions cover all the essential topics from machine learning and NLP to ethical considerations and diversity. You will gain a well-rounded perspective on how AI can drive innovation and efficiency in your organization.
We will delve into the benefits of AI in improving business operations and decision-making processes, emphasizing the importance of diversity and inclusion. Through real-life examples and applications supported by research and practical case studies, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of how AI can drive innovation and efficiency in various business contexts.
In each session we will look at one aspect of AI and how we can work with it. How can it enhance what we are doing, where lie potential pitfalls, how can we make the optimal of the situation? Also, the sessions will leave room for practical examples and exchange.

Sessions are designed to look at one certain aspect of the topic. Each session works in itself within the context of the series. That means, although the sessions expand your knowledge session by session, you will not lose the thread if you cannot attend one certain session.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping business—but not equally. From hiring algorithms that filter out qualified women to platform systems that suppress women’s professional visibility, AI bias is creating systematic barriers to economic opportunity.
This isn’t theory. It’s documented, measurable, and happening now.
Join AI governance expert Arylee McSweaney and Ruth Sierra (The AI Execution Architect) for a data-driven examination of how algorithmic bias impacts women entrepreneurs and business leaders—and what’s being done about it.
Who Should Attend:
Business leaders implementing AI tools, entrepreneurs navigating platform algorithms, professionals concerned about how technology shapes opportunity, anyone who suspects the algorithm isn’t neutral.
The Bottom Line:
Algorithms trained on biased data from biased societies are making decisions about jobs, visibility, credit, and opportunity—at scale, with limited accountability. Understanding how this works isn’t optional anymore. It’s infrastructure.

EWMD International Mentoring
Mentoring has been proven to have a significant impact on peoples’ careers. Personal growth and learning is a key skill in today’s business world and the exchange of knowledge is crucial to achieve that goal. Mentoring accelerates self-development, career progression, and overall self-confidence. The EWMD collects a lot of experienced and senior women who are willingly sharing their knowledge over webinars and the personal exchange already. Bringing these two subjects – the personal learning journey and the existing knowledge in our network – together in a systematic approach seems like the next logical step.
Born from these considerations we are proud to present to you the EWMD Mentoring Program! In Feburary 2026 we offer the frame for a 12 months intensive mentoring program where 1:1 Mentorings are combined with collaborative workshops.
