German Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) jokingly displays clenched fists as Pepper the Robot declines an offer to shake her hand when introduced to the Chancellor by participant Lilly Antonia on Girls’ Day on April 26, 2017 in Berlin, Germany. The event is meant to encourage young women to pursue careers in all parts of the German economy, especially in sciences, information technology and engineering, and this year the event occurs simultaneously with the W20 women’s empowerment summit, sponsored by the G20 Group of 20 major economic powers.
