gender equity and diversity

The third Annual Women Business Collaborative (WBC) Summit is scheduled to take place virtually on 21-22 September 2021.

The theme of this year’s event is ‘Empowering Through Gender Equity and Diversity’. The day and a half event will feature engaging panels and speakers to discuss how best to create equal position, pay and power for all businesswomen. The global virtual event highlight will highlight the key areas and actors advancing diversity, equity and inclusion across industries.

The Summit will recognise two key groups: those CEOs leading the charge to advance diversity and trailblazers whose leadership and innovation have created new pathways to change for their communities and beyond. This year’s virtual event will reach thousands across the globe to engage the broader community of people who want to learn more about to advance the business movement for equity.
