Around 60 scholarship holders celebrated their graduation from the Exist Women programme.
What a finish!
Around 60 female scholarship holders from HFT Stuttgart and the partner universities in the Stuttgart region showed just how much innovative strength there is in their ideas at the final event of EXIST Women 2025 at ARENA2036 - from tech to sustainability to social impact.
Pitches & Award
The female founders presented their business ideas in a lively pitch competition - at the end there was €1,000 in prize money for the best pitch and plenty of valuable feedback from the jury and audience.
Voice, visibility & certificates
A voice training programme prepared the participants perfectly for their future stage moments. In addition, the scholarship holders were able to have professional portrait photos taken - for their website, LinkedIn & Co. Of course, there was also the presentation of certificates for an intensive year full of workshops, coaching sessions and personal growth.
