Women in Leadership: Celebrating 115 years of International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day (IWD) marks its 115th anniversary on Sunday, 8 March 2026. This annual global celebration recognises the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women, while also highlighting the ongoing call to action for gender equality.
To celebrate IWD, we’re excited to host a series of inspiring talks led by accomplished women from a variety of industries. These sessions are a great opportunity to hear firsthand about different career paths, leadership experiences, and industry insights from female leaders.
Join us as we celebrate, learn, and continue working towards a more equal future.
