With the DFLA, the most important industry event for all digital female leaders  – is coming to Karlsruhe on September 23rd, 2023, and shows what just how far a strong partnership can go. Global Digital Women, Messe Karlsruhe, and the City of Karlsruhe are setting an example and  putting women in the digital space center stage and thereby highlighting the themes of today – digitization and diversity!

In current times, economy needs to be reimagined – and that includes women being part of this economy and making it more diverse,” says Tijen Onaran, who first initiated the DFLA six years ago with her company Global Digital Women.

On September 23rd, the Summit will kick off with its first iteration of the Thought Leaders Forum set around this year’s theme: “Be Bold, be Brave, be You!”. With a stimulating keynote and various workshops on topics around diversity, leadership, innovation and sustainability, the participants will dive deep into the topics that move the digital world.

In the evening, the award ceremony is back at the Messe Karlsruhe! In this celebratory event the winners of the 18 categories, ranging from IT Tech to Beauty & Lifestyle to Rising Stars, will be announced and awarded on stage.
