Somewhere between ‘I’ve always been curious about tech’ and ‘I have 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 Zurich, Lausanne, Lugano and beyond.
THIS YEAR, we’re going bigger with a new pivot to our regional upskilling events. A confidence series adds some spice to the talent pipeline straight to the companies looking to hire someone exactly like you.

With #herHACK, we create a safe and inspiring environment for women as well as a network for like-minded people. This is more relevant than ever considering the lack of diversity in tech jobs (only 16% women) and the increasing shortage of skilled workers (38'700 empty positions by 2030).
Thanks to #herHACK, we inspire and empower women and other underrepresented groups to pursue a career in the tech field.
Take these opportunities to hone your skills on real-world challenges, collaborate with peers, share ideas and knowledge and gain valuable experience.
#herHACK presents an amazing opportunity to build your skills by tackling real-world challenges in teams. Are you ready to develop solutions aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals?
Through the years, #herHACK build a community of like-minded people with lots of networking and mentorship opportunities. Together, we create innovative solutions and have lots of fun.
Join us on our group "herHACK Community" on LinkedIn.
#herHACK fosters inclusivity, respect and a sense of belonging. While we put a particular focus on women, we encourage participation for everyone irrespective of gender or nationality.
“I have absolutely loved the presentations (in particular the first) and the guidance provided. Also, the fact that real companies were truly involved in the process, making the work not just a fun exercise but something that might drive an impact.”
"Last year I was one of the participants of the #herHACK and this year I am one of the contributing partners of the #herHACK. So what I can tell you is participate in this hackathon because it Is quite the experience"
“I've been to numerous events during my career with a focus on women in tech, and this was definitely one of my favourites. The atmosphere was electric, and it was a unique and hands-on experience, especially for people with a non-tech background, motivating and encouraging them for careers in tech. I am already looking forward to support in 2024.”
"I participated at the #herHACK to experience something new, to develop new and cool ideas"
"Eager to help the world and to be a help to humanity and to contribute to this"
“I met some great people, and I found the whole event really inspiring. I also liked working on a practical project relating to (hopefully) making the world a better place.”
