Femmes pour l’innovation
Lancement du réseau « Women in Engineering »
A l’occasion du salon international de l’aéronautique et de l’espace 2013, le réseau « Women in Engineering », a
été lancé à l’initiative de 3 dirigeantes* du groupe Altran en collaboration avec des femmes d’influence** des
groupes Safran et PSA. Ce nouveau réseau rassemble des femmes ayant des fonctions de direction dans le
monde de l’ingénierie.
Seul réseau interentreprises réunissant des dirigeantes internationales
du monde de l’ingénierie, « Women in Engineering » rassemble des
personnalités passionnées ayant pour ambition commune de contribuer
à changer concrètement la société et portées par le sens de
l’anticipation en faveur de la performance business et de la croissance.
En filigrane, c’est toute la filière ingénierie qui sera valorisée, afin de
renforcer l’attractivité d’une activité ayant un besoin croissant
d’innovation et de flexibilité dans un contexte international et dans un
monde toujours plus global.
Parce que les femmes évoluent elles-mêmes dans un milieu compétitif
dans lequel elles ont leur place, les femmes dirigeantes qui forment le
réseau « Women in engineering » détiennent des compétences clés pour
contribuer à développer l’attractivité du secteur de l’ingénierie, pilier de
l’innovation et de la compétitivité.
