Background: ISINA
As part of the ISINA format, committed women from science and business come into conversation. Students, young scientists and women in leadership positions exchange ideas on current topics and trends from the spectrum of “career paths for women”. In addition, “ISINA” offers the opportunity to make technical and professional contacts. The focus is also on professional and interdisciplinary exchange between the natural sciences and technical subjects as well as the networking of women in the MINT sector with the aim of building promising collaborations.
