LuxDev fosters inclusive digital transformation and career opportunities in Kosovo’s tech sector through strategic partnerships with Women in Tech and ICK. Their initiatives focus on reskilling and upskilling women, ensuring sustainable employment in ICT and emerging technologies.

Women in Tech, with their project NextGen Workforce, have trained 60 young individuals in digital transformation and artificial intelligence. Currently, they are running a third cohort in Gjakova, western Kosovo, with 30 participants. This initiative offers hands-on training, case studies, and industry exposure.

Meanwhile, the DevelopHer Kosova Program provides structured training on empowering women and girls through skill development in programming, cybersecurity, and creative industries, breaking barriers in traditionally male-dominated fields. The first cohort focused on cybersecurity, selected from over 250 applicants. With a 95% female participation rate, these programs are shaping a diverse, future-ready workforce.

Together, we are closing the gender gap in tech and driving innovation in Kosovo’s digital sector.
