About Heidelberg International Professional Women
Welcome to a dynamic community where women from diverse backgrounds converge to exchange ideas, share experiences, and cultivate skills vital for personal and professional growth.
Our Vision
At Heidelberg International Professional Women's Forum e.V. (HIP), our mission is to empower and connect female professionals in order for you to thrive both personally and professionally.
We envision Heidelberg as a place where women are not only successful in their individual endeavors but also actively contribute to the local community and make it their own. To experience the power of HIP spirit, start with a HIP Night Out!
Our Goals
Our goal is to facilitate meaningful relationships, mentorship opportunities, and knowledge sharing, all while having fun along the way.
Through our monthly Nights Out, on-site and digital workshops, and online platform, we aim to empower women to embrace their unique talents, pursue their passions, and achieve their full potential.
Join us in our events to meet women who are driven, ambitious, and eager to support one another.

HIP Networking Brunch
Our most anticipated event of the year is about to take place on October, 18th 2025. We’re bringing together our vibrant HIP community for a day designed to let you be fully yourself — to learn, connect, and grow together. In a beautiful space filled with inspiring voices, our goal is to create more than just an event: a shared experience of joy, collaboration, and bold ideas. Expect meaningful conversations, new connections, and the kind of energy that stays with you long after the day is over.
Together, we are women — and allies — leading change.
