Building a better future means making sure that every citizen can lead, contribute, and prosper. And that includes all women. It’s giving women more choices in the workforce, closing the gender wage gap, and reaffirming our collective commitment to women’s leadership – from public offices to corporate boardrooms to university and college campuses.

The Rosenzweig report shows us in stark terms how much has been achieved on the path to lasting gender equality and at the same time how much work is still to be done. We know that if women aren’t safe they can’t progress…

Winning companies are fueled by strong and healthy diversity of thought, which is heavily dependent on the diversity of people they hire. At J.P. Morgan, much of our success starts with the sourcing of diverse talent from a wide range of universities around the world to our RE-ENTRY programs for career changes made later in life…

I was raised in a home of strong women, and I proudly stand tall in my 4-inch heels. But regardless of the shoes we wear, all leaders need an equal playing field. My hope is that one day, “women leaders” will simply be referred to as “leaders.” At X, our mission is to empower everyone to voice their opinions and express their viewpoints freely and safely…

Empowering more women as leaders across sectors profoundly propels organizations, people and society forward. While there has been some progress in the number of women in top leadership roles, there is still a significant amount of work to be done. We must challenge the status quo. All of us, regardless of gender,…

The Female Quotient is in the Business of Equality, strategically partnering with the most influential businesses and conscious leaders in the world to close the gender gap. We have cultivated the largest global community of women in business across every industry in over 100 countries…

I have been advocating for women around the globe for decades, but never have I felt the need to speak out more keenly than with the horrific sexual violence visited on innocent women and girls as an instrument of war, be it in Ukraine, Sudan, or any other conflict zone, most recently by Hamas in Israel and against those in captivity in Gaza.

What happened to women in Israel on Oct. 7 — and the world's reluctance to talk about it — must be brought to the forefront. Along with some other Muslim women, I have condemned the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks, including the brutal and systematic rape and sexual violence against dozens of women and girls…

Our main focus should be funding and investing in women, especially women of color, and their business ventures. There is no better investment we can make than in our women entrepreneurs. Looking forward to working with Jay and the incredible community he has built to continue to create an even bigger impact together for the future.

At a time when human rights abuses, particularly those affecting women and girls in areas of armed conflict, are rising steeply, it is important to shine a light on the perpetrators of these crimes and demand justice and accountability. The Rosenzweig Report, now in its 19th year, began as a survey charting the progress women are making in reaching the top echelons in the corporate sector…

As someone who is passionately involved in the movement for social and environmental justice, I cannot overstate the importance of allies like Jay Rosenzweig in our struggle to make the world safe for those who are vulnerable. As Chair of the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights and as author of the Rosenzweig Report,…

Partners in Kind is committed to ensuring that representation in Hollywood, behind the scenes and on screens, increases and achieves true equity in every sense. Women’s voices, women’s stories, and women’s perspectives should be championed and elevated. It’s shameful that, overall, women account for only 22% of all directors,…

I’m passionate about wave power and gender equality in STEM. At 24, I founded Eco Wave Power, facing skepticism about wave energy’s feasibility. Now, we have operational projects in Israel and upcoming ones in California and Portugal. Wave energy could potentially double the world’s electricity supply and meet 66% of the U.S. energy needs…

I am encouraged by the strides being taken towards achieving gender equity in our C-suites and boardrooms, not only in Canada but also globally. Progress is evident, yet there remains a considerable amount of work within our organizations to recognize and rectify inequalities and entrenched biases. It is imperative…

I believe the investment landscape is becoming more welcoming for women. While we often face the challenge of proving our competence and achievements more rigorously, this moment in history might be the most opportune for female general partners. Experienced investors are progressively recognizing that our unique perspectives and strategies across various asset classes can yield exceptional returns.

At the current rate, it will take 120+ years to close the gender pay gap. New technologies are fueling business and accelerating economic empowerment. As we enter this new age of digital commerce, Zipline, as well as many other companies and technologies, has the potential to do what has never been done before: close the gender pay gap in our lifetime…

As a finance leader with a successful track record across multiple industries, my vision is to leverage my unique blend of traditional finance and cutting-edge tech knowledge to champion women in blockchain and support female founders. Incredibly, women-led startups still receive less than 3% of venture capital funding in North America…
