About this Event

The “Women in Cyber - Leading change in the public sector” program was established with the aim of recognising, supporting and empowering the emerging female leaders in cyber and information assurance roles across the Scottish public sector. This Scottish Government initiative has been delivered in partnership with leadership development specialists Empowering You, and they invite you to join them in celebrating the graduation of the 2025/26 "Women in Cyber" cohort .

On the 26th of February, the graduates will gather together to present the outputs from their “Challenge” projects, in front of an audience of their peers and the broader Scottish cyber community . These “Challenges” represent some of the key issues facing society and the cyber eco-system that the profession can help to address and have been an invaluable opportunity for the participants to collaborate and grow as a group.

We are delighted to welcome all of the “Women in Cyber” graduates, their organisational sponsors who have supported them on their journey and our stakeholders from across the public sector who have helped this initiative to support these amazing cyber leaders in realising their leadership ambitions.
