"We still have an unfinished democracy. We need to unlock the potential of women in all sectors of society across our Union to chart a path to genuine gender equality on this continent"
"As an entrepreneur myself, I strongly believe the future of entrepreneurship is female. While still only a third of all self-employed in Austria are women, we are seeing important changes on the horizon. In 2018, women made up around 45 percent of new Austrian entrepreneurs, an all-time high. We have to continue this trend and support and encourage even more women to venture into business. Our ideas and visions can and already have a powerful impact on the economy and labor market. We have the potential to transform the entrepreneurial landscape and to inspire a generation of future women leaders."
"Digitalization is one of the key elements of an innovative and sustainable future for our society. A lot of women are already playing leading roles in the industry and also in politics digitalization gets on the agenda of female politicians more often. It is very important, that women neither be afraid of technology and evolution and that we educate ourselves in digital skills so we can create a future world where the influence of women can be seen continuously through all areas."
