About the event
Vertonet Inspiration Day is our biggest annual gathering—bringing together inspiring voices from the tech industry in a space built on equality and inclusion. While the event primarily focuses on women and non-binaries in tech, everyone is welcome to join.

As in previous years, the Inspiration day Award will be presented, with the purpose to honor individuals who have supported the cause exceptionally well, contributed to increasing the representation or visibility of women and non-binary in IT, and served as role models for others.
