Investment Week Women in Investment Awards 2023 | Incisive Media | 14 April 2023 | The Brewery, 52 Chiswell St, London EC1Y 4SA, UK

Now in their seventh year, the Investment Week Women in Investment Awards have a vital role to play in helping accelerate the pace of change towards a more diverse and inclusive investment industry.

We had a phenomenal response to last year’s awards but we believe 2023’s ceremony can be even bigger and better.

Our awards not only honour the inspiring achievements of women across all parts of the investment industry, they also help shape the discussion around how we can improve diversity & inclusion within the sector and make a real impact.
