The Femmes du Digital Ouest association was created in November 2015 under the impetus of two digital professionals, Sandrine Charpentier and Sandrine Fouillé, at the end of the first edition of the Femmes du Digital Ouest Prize.
FDO is the result of a collective ambition:
- To capitalize on the regional digital ecosystem committed to the values of gender diversity and its dynamism, to carry out concrete actions to encourage gender diversity ;
- To promote the presence of women both in digital events and in the digital economy in general ;
- To federate the local ecosystem and promote diversity ;
- To break the codes of a sector that is still too masculine ;
- To raise awareness among young women of digital professions and opportunities in order to encourage vocations.
The Femmes du Digital Ouest association aims to federate the regional ecosystem of the Pays de la Loire, women and men combined, for more diversity in the digital sector. The Femmes du Digital Ouest association orients its actions along 3 main axes.
- Raise awareness among young girls of the opportunities offered by digital technology, a field with many opportunities that remains little invested by women!
- Federate and animate the community of Men and Women around gender diversity
- Identify and promote role models and through communication and events throughout the year, including the Women in Digital West Prize.
