Empowering the next generation of women in tech: Celebrating Girls' Day at CoreMedia

Our Hamburg office was buzzing with energy because it was Girls' Day today! This nationwide event gives teenage girls the chance to discover careers in science, tech and IT up close. And we were thrilled to be part of it once again.

CoreMedia Girls Day 2025 Feature

Together, we put their experience into words. Here’s what stood out and what inspired them most:

Girls' Day at CoreMedia

After a quick round of introductions (everyone remembered their names – phew!), we kicked things off with Valentina, a super nice Customer Success Manager. She explained what CoreMedia actually is (spoiler: not a new chocolate bar) and what they do for their customers. She also revealed some of the big names they work with – like Hoka and Telekom. Wow!

Valentina also told us about her job. A Customer Success Manager is kind of like a tour guide for websites – helping customers navigate their CoreMedia journey, making sure everything runs smoothly and keeps improving. We suspect she has a magic wand hidden somewhere.

Next up was Isabel – she’s doing a dual study program, meaning she’s studying and working at the same time (respect!). She gave a presentation on different paths into IT. Some of us thought, “That sounds exciting!” Others thought, “When’s lunch?”

Then we got to interview Andreas and Eric. We could ask them anything – from “How did you end up here?” to “Do you really understand all that code?” (Answer: yes – somehow. We’re pretty sure they’re secretly wizards.)

Lunch break! And it was legendary. We played table soccer and ate pizza – an unbeatable combo. Who won? Let’s just say: the competitive spirit was high. And so was our appetite.

After lunch, it was time to get coding – with Calliope! (No, not a new smartphone, but a tiny mini-computer.) We sent messages to each other and even made LEDs blink. Super cool! Mariya, Isabel, and Eric showed us how it’s done. Thanks for that!

And now, here we are, writing this blog post and trying to put the day into words. In between, we also had a chat with Babsi about marketing and advertising – another exciting topic. Spoiler: it’s about way more than just pretty colors.

So, if you think IT is exciting (or you just love pizza – both count), you have to join Girls’ Day 2026 at CoreMedia! You won’t regret it. Promise. 😄
