📅 Friday, December 12, 2025 FemTech Friday #17 [Best for Women in Tech, Innovators, Founders] [FREE]
FemTech Friday returns for its final edition of the year, offering a full day of coworking, community building, and skill development inside CIC Warsaw. Designed as an open, supportive environment for women shaping the future of technology and innovation, this instalment brings together founders, operators, designers, scientists, investors, and leaders seeking both concentrated work time and meaningful professional connection. Running from 09:00 to 16:00, the event blends individual productivity with curated group moments, culminating in a hands on public speaking workshop led by communication specialist Dominik Goss.
Set within CIC Warsaw’s vibrant coworking ecosystem, the day offers access to ergonomic workspaces, high speed internet, creative breakout zones, and an atmosphere optimized for both deep focus and spontaneous collaboration. FemTech Friday has become a signature gathering for women driving change across Poland’s innovation landscape, and this final edition continues that mission by offering an open format that adapts to each attendee’s work rhythm. Whether you are preparing a pitch deck, finalizing a product sprint, mapping out strategic priorities for 2026, or simply seeking an energizing work environment among peers, the event provides structured and unstructured space to engage, reflect, and accelerate.
The centrepiece of this month’s edition is a 90 minute professional development workshop dedicated to mastering public speaking. Led by communication coach and presentation mentor Dominik Goss, the session is designed for participants at all comfort levels. Through practical exercises, group work, and reflective prompts, the workshop explores how authenticity, presence, and clarity can transform personal communication. Attendees examine their own mindset around presenting, identify barriers that limit confidence, and learn techniques for speaking effectively in both formal and informal settings. The workshop is conducted in English, making it accessible to the international community that regularly gathers at CIC Warsaw.
Throughout the day, participants can expect a blend of structured and informal interactions: coworking sessions that naturally evolve into discussions, peer review moments, idea exchanges, and opportunities to meet women from diverse areas of the innovation economy. Previous editions have drawn professionals from AI, healthtech, edtech, biotech, venture capital, UX research, product management, marketing, and strategic consulting. This cross disciplinary presence fosters an atmosphere where problems are reframed, insights are shared, and collaborations often emerge unexpectedly.
FemTech Friday is part of the broader Venture Café Warsaw Thursday Gathering ecosystem, an ongoing initiative that strengthens Warsaw’s innovation community by creating inclusive, accessible spaces for professional development and connection. CIC Warsaw’s support ensures a consistent standard of hospitality, spatial design, and community facilitation that participants have come to expect.
