We aim for an event that brings together women in the technology community in both education and industry at HSLU’s Department of Computer Science.
Tasthis event will feature a stimulating keynote speech, informative workshops on effective mentor-mentee relationships and career pathways in tech, an inspiring panel discussion, and networking opportunities where participants can find their mentor or mentee.

Join our upcoming Prompt Engineering workshop, designed for women and focused on creating effective AI inputs. This essential skill aids in problem-solving, automating tasks, and boosting creativity. The workshop, held in English, also covers sustainability topics. Register by 16 September as spots are limited to 18 participants. An aperitif will follow the session. Don’t miss this opportunity!

After the successful event in November 2023 at LAC Lugano, we keep momentum and follow up with a Tech&Connect event that brings together the diverse community in Tech and STEM in Ticino. 2 short workshops (limited places), followed by a stimulating keynote about the digital strategy for Ticino and inspiring panels on disinformation, and finally, the focus will be on informal networking.

Are you new to the sustainability topic and you would like to understand more about it? Do you hear the SDG talk around you but not sure what power you have as “just” a person in a BIG world? Join our “A to Z in sustainability” workshop and learn the very first steps of how “you can be the change you want to see in the world”. You will discover that sustainability goes beyond climate talk and environmental protection and that there are more nuances to it. And also, you will discover that just one person is never small for BIG impact.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, the demand for quick and reliable information retrieval is more pressing than ever.
This workshop will guide you through creating an interactive app using Generative AI to upload text articles in “txt,” “md,” or “pdf” formats and ask questions about their content.
We will utilize Large Language Models (such as ChatGPT or Gemma) and Python packages to achieve this goal.
By the end of this workshop, you will have a solid foundation that can be applied to other text-retrieval tasks and app prototyping, which will be invaluable during hackathons. See you soon, and let’s hack together!
