Ada Lovelace Day is an international celebration of the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM). It aims to increase the profile of women in STEM and, in doing so, create new role models who will encourage more girls into STEM careers and support women already working in STEM.

Join us at the Queensland University of Technology for an up close and personal QandA with Brisbane's top female STEM researchers over breakfast. This event is open to all to discuss the opportunities and challenges of women with careers in STEM.
