Cracking the gender equality puzzle

SPONSORSHIP DECK

June 25, 2020 London Women empowerment has gained momentum, again. More women than ever before sit on the board of companies and some are reaching top leadership positions in Europe. Yet, gender equality disparities remain across the world. Issues related to the lack of female representation at the political and board levels, the gender pay gap, and the difficulty to move up the corporate ladder while having a family appear to have an enduring character.

This year will host two high-level events as part of Women Rule Series.

Firstly, the 3rd edition of the Women Rule Summit will take place in the cosmopolitan city of London on June 25 2020. This half-day event will be an opportunity to discuss how to bridge the gap between rhetoric and reality.

Secondly, in light of the International Women’s Day POLITICO will host a one-on-one interview with a policymaker to share their thoughts, this Women Rule LIVE, on March 5, will be an invitation-only event.

Throughout the Women Rule Series we will engage policymakers, business representatives, civil society leaders and experts from across Europe to generate a comparative and solution-oriented discussion on what the next steps should be.
