Women in Entrepreneurship Program: Applications Now Open

We’re excited to share that applications are now open for the Women in Entrepreneurship program, a unique hybrid initiative brought to you by DWIH San Francisco and GUILD Academy.
This program is designed to inspire and empower women on their entrepreneurial journeys, combining practical learning with incredible networking opportunities in one of the world’s leading innovation hubs.

What to Expect
The program has two parts:

  1. Online Academy (May 6 – June 24, 2025): Over eight weeks, participants will gain essential entrepreneurial knowledge through virtual sessions.
  2. In-Person Experience in San Francisco (September 1–5, 2025): Ten finalists will be invited to the Bay Area for an intensive, hands-on program curated by GUILD Academy. This in-person experience offers unparalleled access to workshops, networking events, and the vibrant entrepreneurial community of Silicon Valley.

Who Can Apply
We welcome applications from anyone with a connection to the German academic landscape—whether you’re a current student, researcher, or alum of a German university, technical college, or research institute. German citizenship or residency is not required.

The application fee is €50, and if selected for the in-person program, participants will only need to cover their flight and some meal costs.
