Between “curious about tech” and “no idea where to start”.
That’s exactly where #herHACK begins. We don’t need you to know how to code. We need you
to show up, ask questions, and refuse to be the woman in the room who stays quiet.
Since 2021, #herHACK has connected over 500 women with real tech challenges, real mentors,
and real employers across Switzerland.
Only 16% of tech jobs are held by women, while Switzerland faces 38'700 unfilled tech
positions by 2030. #herHACK inspires and empowers women and underrepresented groups to pursue
a career in tech.

Last year I was a participant, this year I am a contributing partner. What I can tell you is: participate in this hackathon, because it is quite the experience.
Fun fact

I've been to numerous women-in-tech events, and this was definitely one of my favourites. The atmosphere was electric — a unique, hands-on experience, especially for people with a non-tech background.
Electrifying atmosphere

I participated at the #herHACK to experience something new, to develop new and cool ideas.
