Where Girls Meet Possibility

SheSTEAM Summit South Africa

The SheSTEAM Summit is a signature experience bringing girls and young women together with educators, universities, STEAM professionals, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders.

Through hands-on learning, career exposure, mentorship, and conversations with women working in STEAM, participants are encouraged to see themselves as the innovators, creators, entrepreneurs, and leaders of the future.

What Happens at a SheSTEAM Summit?

Every Summit is designed to combine inspiration with experience.

Participants may:

  • Explore hands-on STEAM activities and demonstrations
  • Meet women working in STEAM careers
  • Discover emerging technologies and career pathways
  • Participate in innovation and design challenges
  • Learn about entrepreneurship and leadership
  • Connect with universities, organizations, and industry partners
  • Build relationships with other girls interested in STEAM

More Than a One-Day Event

The Summit introduces girls to opportunities that can continue through other SheSTEAM programs, mentorship, educational experiences, and leadership opportunities.

Our goal is for every participant to leave thinking:

“There is a place for me in STEAM.”
