Women in science have a future — and the future needs them!
On 3 March 2026, the European Patent Office (EPO) is hosting an open, free online event dedicated to the progress of women in research, innovation and patents.
What you will watch:
- New evidence from the EPO’s Observatory on women’s career progression across research, innovation and patenting (tracking STEM careers over time: deep-tech startups, PhDs, patents and more).
- Leading voices sharing what it takes to move from data to action, including a conversation between inventors with Catia Bastioli (CEO and European Inventor Award Laureate) and Marie Perrin (Young Inventors Prize awardee).
- A policy-focused panel on challenges, solutions and new perspectives for strengthening the innovation pipeline.
