We’re excited to invite you to CAREhER’s 6th International Women’s Day Summit! This year, with an incredible theme “AI & She – Transforming Lives, Innovating, and Shaping Sustainable Futures” — together we’ll explore how AI is changing the way women lead, live, and make a difference in their communities.
As always, CAREhER’s International Women’s Day Summit is never your typical conference. This time, we’re blending cutting-edge tech, authentic conversations, and hands-on experiences to create this special day. International leaders from Japan, Singapore, and the US will again gather in Taipei to share their insights; established industry giants such as NVIDIA, Micron, and GE Vernova will join innovators from San Francisco and Kyoto for conversations that will surely spark discussions; speakers from Google Maps and Bechtel will stimulate cross-industry partnerships and insights.
Yet, something truly unique is happening this year: we’re kicking the day off with an interactive art experience by Hako & Mirror Mirror, both led by talented young Taiwanese teams making an impact in the US and Japan. This special showcase brings together a 300-year-old craft tradition and the power of AI, turning storytelling into a dynamic, collective journey. You’ll get to use a custom app to interact with the art throughout the day, culminating in a stunning, crowd-created masterpiece—a reflection of what we can achieve when technology and community come together.
The heart of the summit is our diverse panels, featuring women leaders breaking barriers in STEM and beyond. These aren’t just talks; they’re conversations that connect women from Taiwan to the US, from Japan to Singapore. Together, we’ll explore how AI can drive sustainability, empower women-led businesses, and create more inclusive social change. We’ll also dive into why women have such a unique role to play in shaping a resilient and equitable future.
Whether you’re passionate about tech, leadership, or making a difference in your community, this summit is for you. It’s a space to learn, connect, and feel inspired by what’s possible when women lead the charge in innovation.
Join us and be part of this amazing journey to reimagine the future with AI—together!
