The Finnish Business Council and the Swedish Business Council are together with the corporate member of SBC Transform8 happy to welcome you to an International Women’s Day event! During the evening we will hear from two panels about the Technology and Innovation for Gender Equality.
Gender balance is not a women's issue but rather a win-win outcome for our global economy and our individual companies. However, the journey does not come without its challenges and requires the participation of both men and women to find the best solutions. Join us as we discover recent advances and best practices that support this mission and participate in the discussion around what needs to be done and how we can get there, together.
