Our Impact

Since launching WomenWise, we have supported women exploring pathways into the technology industry through structured mentoring, skills development and exposure to real-world careers. Across our previous cohorts, the programme has focused on building confidence, broadening aspiration and supporting informed progression.

WomenWise is designed to evolve with each cohort, learning from participant feedback and strengthening the mentoring experience year on year.

2025 cohort

Building on the success of the first year, the 2025 cohort strengthened and expanded the programme.

  1. Focus: progression, career pathways and practical insight into the technology industry

  2. What evolved: enhanced mentor support, refined programme structure and deeper career exposure

  3. Outcomes: stronger engagement, clearer progression goals and increased readiness to take next steps

“Having a mentor working in tech gave me real insight into the industry and helped me believe I belong there.”

  • “I’ve become more reflective at work, focusing on observing, listening and staying curious. I’m very grateful for the mentoring sessions — they were insightful and full of wisdom, curiosity and thoughtful questioning, which helped me shift how I show up at work.”

    — Victoria (2025 Cohort)

  • “When I started the programme, I was very unsatisfied with my role. Now I’m performing at a higher level and genuinely enjoying my work much more, thanks to my mentor’s advice and achievable next steps. I’ve gained the confidence to ask for feedback, even when it’s uncomfortable, and speaking up in large groups has become much easier. The structure of the programme was guided but flexible, and the conversations and homework between sessions had a real impact on my confidence and visibility at work.”

  • “My mentor provided clarity across both technical work and project management, and really helped to bolster my confidence as a data scientist. Her guidance encouraged me to think through problems more systematically and develop manageable strategies to overcome them.

This is the most well-supported, structured and innovative mentoring programme I’ve experienced in my career so far.”

She’s been incredibly encouraging and essential in my journey into the technology world.”
