For 25 years, Femtec has empowered women in STEM. With the dissolution of the GmbH at the end of April, an important chapter comes to a close – but the momentum, experience, and the powerful network of over 1,700 alumnae will continue to have an impact far beyond this moment. EAF Berlin co-founded Femtec with the Technical University of Berlin in 2001. We look back with joy and pride on more than two decades of successful and sustainable commitment alongside an extraordinary network of companies and universities.

63 percent of employees in Germany have experienced sexism at work. The study, conducted by EAF Berlin as part of the "Together Against Sexism" alliance, shows that women and genderqueer individuals are primarily affected, while sexism is predominantly perpetrated by men. These experiences often lead to emotional and psychological distress and can negatively impact careers and financial situations.
