Founding Cohort opens Autumn 2026 in Tbilisi

Four seasons. Four fields.
One extraordinary year.

Each season explores a different field through the stories of women who saw what others couldn't — and changed the world because of it.

Season 1

Science

From Marie Curie's radioactivity to Chien-Shiung Wu's broken symmetry. The women who uncovered the invisible forces of nature.

Season 2

Technology

From Ada Lovelace's first algorithm to Katherine Johnson's orbital calculations. The women who wrote the invisible language of machines.

Season 3

Medicine

From Elizabeth Blackwell's fight to practice to Tu Youyou's ancient cure. The women who saw the invisible patient.

Season 4

Planet

From Eunice Newton Foote's greenhouse discovery to Wangari Maathai's 51 million trees. The women who saw the invisible wounds of the Earth.

Cohorts of 12 Selected by curiosity, not grades Membership is forever Designed to scale globally
