Everything you need to know about the NEXT LEVEL Membership

Why is there a Premium Membership now?

After 12 years of dedicated network building, we've noticed that commitment to equality in companies fluctuates. Attitudes change. But good networks need commitment – and continuity. We want to continue and sustainably advocate for our mission. To achieve this, we're pooling our resources in a membership model that offers you more – and allows us to have a long-term impact.

What exactly is "Next Level"?

Our Next Level Leadership Development Program is an essential part of the PANDA Premium Membership for everyone who not only wants to network but also wants to develop more specifically.

It gives you access to a curated annual program with over 30 events in four categories:

Leadership Skills – Practical tools, workshops, and impulses
Inspiration & Networking – Fireside chats, Salons, Executive Lounges, Leadership Lunchbreaks – with inspiring speakers and peers
Inner Work – Developing mindful self-leadership and attitude
Common Impact – Keynotes and formats for systemic change

The Premium Membership also offers you access to the NEXT LEVEL Leadership Development Program with +30 offerings distributed throughout the year for your personal development as a leader. Any Meetup fees are also already included here.

Who Is "Next Level" For?

NEXT LEVEL is designed for ambitious women in leadership who not only want to network but also want to grow professionally and personally and bring about social change. When designing the program, we had these three personas in mind and curated the offerings accordingly:

Emerging Leaders: You have initial leadership experience and want security, sparring, and new skills.
Established Leaders: You already have experience – but you ask yourself: "What now?" You want inspiration, contacts, relevance, and resonance.
Influential Leaders: Are you C-level, on the board, or in management? Here you will find peer exchange, strategic depth, and social impact.

Do I Have to Decide Immediately?

No, you can decide on the Premium Membership and join our ongoing program at any time. However: If you join Next Level right at the start, you benefit from the full program year beginning in March 2026. This way, you secure not only the Early Bird price but also:

immediate access to all formats
becoming part of the first cohort right away
the opportunity to build contacts and content from the start that will carry through the year

In short: Why wait when you can benefit from the entire year right away?

Where Can I Book?

Directly via our website: www.we-are-panda.com/next-level

Or via the PANDA App, the Digest, or our emails.

I Want To Remain Part Of The PANDA Network, But I Currently Cannot Afford The €49/Month – Am I Then Excluded?

No! What is important to us: Nobody should be left out of PANDA just because it is not financially convenient right now. That is why there is the Basic Membership – for a symbolic €1 per month. This way, you remain part of the network and still have access to events, groups, exchange, and networking. If you want to switch to the Premium model later: it is possible at any time.

Because: Impact is created when we persevere together – not when we wait for perfect conditions.

You can apply directly here.
