Why AI Skills Must Translate into Leadership Access for Women
11 November 2026 · 10:00–10:50
Community Space · Web Summit Lisbon
Women are building the capabilities needed to shape the AI economy. But skills alone do not create authority, sponsorship, access to capital or a place in the rooms where consequential decisions are made.
At Web Summit Lisbon, Global Women TechLeaders will convene a focused meetup about the missing link between AI capability and leadership opportunity.
Joining the conversation
- Simona Sandru, Founder & CEO, Global Women TechLeaders
- Radiana Miteva, Happiness Scientist, R•M
- Madalena Costa, Founder & AI Product Strategist, Human x Intelligent
- Steliana Moraru, CEO, Vettoria, and Vice President of the Board, Global Women TechLeaders — Moderator
Together, they will explore what employers, investors, leaders and ecosystem partners must do to ensure that women’s AI expertise translates into influence, advancement and meaningful economic participation.
Women do not need to be endlessly prepared for the future. They are already building it. The question is whether institutions are opening the pathways that allow them to lead it.
