Cyber security is no longer just about firewalls, passwords, or antivirus software. Today, it’s also about understanding how artificial intelligence (AI) shapes both attacks and defenses. As AI becomes more integrated into everyday workflows, professionals who are AI-literate are better equipped to protect organizations, data, and individuals from increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

Cyber security in Switzerland is no longer defined by sheer volume of attacks, but by their increasing precision, complexity, and impact. According to the National Cyber Security Centre’s final review of 2025, almost 65,000 cyber incidents were reported over the year. While the overall increase compared to previous years was moderate, the nature of cybercrime has changed significantly.

Connection is at the heart of growth, opportunity and resilience for women. In today’s digital world, we are more “connected” than ever before, yet many professionals still feel isolated. Notifications, virtual meetings and endless tools can give the illusion of connection, but real connection is something deeper. Trust grows through empathy and shared purpose when people genuinely engage with one another. For women working in digital roles, authentic connections are essentia

Digital Transformation Isn’t Gender-Neutral, Digital transformation touches every aspect of our lives, from the way we work, learn, and communicate to the systems that shape our economies and societies. But while technology is often seen as objective or neutral, the truth is more complex: digital transformation isn’t gender-neutral.

The final months of the year often bring a mix of energy and reflection. Projects are wrapping up, plans are forming for the next cycle, and many of us begin to question whether the goals we set earlier in the year still fit the reality we are living.

But with great flexibility comes unique challenges. As leaders and employees, we must acknowledge that a remote setup can also lead to feelings of isolation and burnout if not managed with intention.

Neurodiversity is the idea that the differences in how people think, learn, and process information are simply part of human variation. Conditions such as autism, ADHD, or dyslexia are often framed as challenges, but they can also bring unique strengths and perspectives. Instead of treating these differences as problems to be solved, the concept of neurodiversity encourages us to view them as valuable contributions to the richness of our communities and workplaces.
