Rohde & Schwarz Emirates L.L.C. launches empowerment initiative for women and youth

Dubai, October 10, 2024 — This dynamic 1-day workshop, hosted at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences in Dubai, will offer female students the opportunity to engage with high-caliber leaders, including the German Consulate General in Dubai, through panel discussions and keynote speeches. These distinguished leaders will share personal experiences, offering valuable guidance on balancing career and personal life, navigating challenges, and thriving in their professional journeys.

The workshop will also provide a structured framework on career management, with sessions dedicated to preparing for job interviews and career transitions. Attendees will have the opportunity to network with industry professionals, engage in discussions, and get insights from inspiring leaders coming from various industries.

Empowering the future: a unique and purposeful program

The initiative stands out by actively supporting three pillars of societal development: education, women empowerment, and youth advancement. By fostering engagement in these areas, Rohde & Schwarz Emirates L.L.C. not only contributes to the UAE Government’s Vision 2030, but also champions a global movement toward inclusive, data-driven, and purposeful societal development.

H.E. Sybille Pfaff, Consul General of the Federal Republic of Germany in Dubai, stressed: “Understanding the voices of women and youth is central to the program’s mission and we are proud to support an initiative that aims to empower young women in their career journey, to help them reach their full potential, and ultimately to become active contributors in the UAE and beyond.”

Positioning Rohde & Schwarz as a leader in private sector

While many empowerment initiatives are government-driven, Rohde & Schwarz Emirates L.L.C. is taking the lead as a private sector organization, demonstrating its commitment to societal development by bringing together influential stakeholders. Annegret Steudner, Regional HR Analyst at Rohde & Schwarz said: “Rohde & Schwarz is dedicated to act as a proactive force in fostering the growth and development of women and youth, strengthening its reputation as a key partner in the region's future workforce development.
