Join us for an OWIT members-exclusive professional development seminar with Ms. Simona Scarpaleggia, Co-Chair of the UN High Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment. Ms.Scarpaleggia is also the CEO of IKEA Switzerland which, under her leadership, has joined the International Gender Champions Initiative.  “I firmly believe that there is a huge potential that could be unlocked simply by valuing and empowering women. The energy, the power and creativity of women is badly needed-not only to make this world a better place, but to enable it to survive in the years to come.” Simona Scarpaleggia.  Ms. Scarpaleggia will discuss key takeaways and her involvement with the first-ever UN High Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment. Our OWIT moderators will facilitate the open question and answer session following her presentation. We invite all OWIT members to attend this free, members- only event.
