Women in STEM Roundtable: From Academia to Industry (and ASML)

What really changes when you step outside academia? And what do you wish someone had told you before you made the leap? ASML employees will share candid stories about challenges, trade‑offs, and unexpected wins along the way. We’ll talk openly about professional shifts, visibility, mentorship, and the often-invisible skills that shape careers beyond publications and CVs. Designed as a conversation rather than a lecture, the session leaves plenty of space for questions, reflections, and real dialogue. Whether you’re actively considering a move to industry after your PhD, weighing multiple career paths, or simply curious about ASML, this is a chance to explore those questions in a supportive, low‑pressure setting.
