Between 23 and 27 August 2021, Huawei held in Lisbon the first Summer School for Female Leadership in the Digital Age. From 1,225 applicants, an independent jury selected one participant from each of the 27 EU Member States to take part in this week-long programme of masterclasses, team projects, active learning and cultural experiences.

Berta Herrero, Programme Director, welcomed them: “You are leaders, you are here to lead, and you are also here to inspire others. But most importantly, you are here to be each other’s mentors and biggest supporters.”

Abraham Liu, Huawei’s Chief Representative to the European Institutions, said at Monday’s Reception: “This is a unique opportunity to have 27 brilliant women, the future leaders of the digital era, in the same room. Five days is very short, but friendship lasts forever.”

Female role models like MEP Lina Gálvez, the President of the Portuguese Commission for Citizenship and Gender Equality Sandra Ribeiro, Sustainability Advisor and W20 Sherpa Martina Rogato, and Jury coordinator Beatriz Becerra, encouraged participants to make the most out of the week and help make the digital world more diverse, equal, and inclusive.

There is infinite talent in Europe – but sometimes this talent is not well identified or supported and risks going to waste. To help women be more active participants in Europe’s recovery (a fundamental pillar of which is the digital transition), Huawei aims to recognise the immense potential of female talent, and to proactively support it, empowering girls to lead the tech revolution.
