Empowering Women, Inspiring the Next Generation in Automotive and STEM

On 8 March 2026, the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola will open its gates to the public for the fourth edition of WOW – Women Motor, the initiative dedicated to women empowerment, STEM education, and inclusion in the automotive and motorsport sectors.
