What does this mean for .lumen?
This opportunity represents a significant milestone as it aims to empower and uplift female leaders in the field of deep technologies.

What’s next?
While the demand for talent in Europe's research, innovation, and venture investment sectors is high, the underrepresentation of women remains a challenge, with women holding less than 20% of senior management positions in deep tech start-ups. At .lumen, we strive to be an example of positive change in addressing this issue.
