NEMO is proud to be among the European projects taking part in a joint social media campaign coordinated by ICONS Innovation Strategies for International Women in Engineering Day (INWED) 2026 – happening today 23 June 2026.

Bringing together EU-funded initiatives across sectors, from mobility and energy to manufacturing and the built environment, the campaign celebrates the contribution of women engineers and researchers while promoting diversity, innovation and equal opportunities.

Participating projects will share video messages and quotes answering a key question: “How would you encourage other women to take up a career in engineering?” The initiative aims to inspire the next generation and highlight the importance of inclusive representation in STEM fields.

As part of NEMO’s contribution, Dr. Martina Weise (IAV) shares her perspective:

“Join the world of engineering: Discover your joy for math, software and technology to create innovative solutions for everyday problems as well as future challenges. Find optimal answers through team collaboration.”

Through real stories and experiences, the campaign showcases how women are already shaping Europe’s technological future.
