About this listen

What happens when women are shown what’s possible in science and tech?
They rise—brilliantly.


In Capsule #12 of our Brilliantly Branded Podcast mini-series, we spotlight Lola Villaro, who leads communications for the NATO Office of the Chief Scientist in Brussels.

She’s also the passionate force behind the Women and Girls in Science Challenge, recently recognized as the Most Impactful Initiative at the Women in Tech Europe Awards.

Lola shares what fuels her work, the importance of visibility and role models for young girls in science, and how supportive leadership—like that of her colleague can change the trajectory of a career.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

  • Inspiration is contagious when women are given space to lead.
  • Representation matters—we need to show girls what’s possible.
  • Empowerment comes through opportunity and trust.


👉 Tune in to hear how Lola is using storytelling, science, and support to drive visibility for women in STEAM.
