I have just gotten this confidence, I’m a lot more confident because of PENTA. I’m not sitting back anymore because I’m a young female, but instead I’m saying I can and should do this and my ideas are good enough."

Jamy-Lee Bam, Data Scientist, Cape Town

I believed that I was the only one facing numerous challenges as I progressed in my career, but PENTA helped me realise that every successful woman has faced the same during their life, and these obstacles only help us grow."

Paarmita Pandey, Physics Masters student, India

PENTA will be an unforgettable journey for me. I’ve met so many wonderful and inspiring women who have taught me so much about both life and careers."

The magazine was an immediate hit after school: my daughter walked home with her nose in it. Took it away at bedtime and worked her way through all the puzzles!"

Una, writer and educator

The content is fantastic and the concept is something we really need in the current science climate to inspire girls and women and give them good role models. I hope it will continue to thrive and get more ambitious.
