ME Women Leaders Awards 2023 | Verve Management | 23 October 2023 | Marina Dubai

Historically, women have always played a prominent role in society and been decision-makers. Contrarily, the roles of women in the workforce have been negligent. As per the global statistics, only 6% of women are working in leadership positions and this number further dipped during the pandemic.

We are proud to present this awards 2023. With this summit, we want to progress to another dimension of conversation that moves beyond women’s empowerment. We strongly believe that women have evolved from a paradigm of discussion to a spectrum that challenges the conventional norm of how women are perceived in the workplace. This summit creates an ecosystem for everyone to thrive together. We bring together great women achievers who will share their struggles, journey, stories, and successes with other aspiring women. Our last edition was a testimony of this celebration where we had women leaders from various sectors discussing this new evolution.

This platform celebrates the paradigm shift of new-age leadership while paving the way for the next generation of women leaders. Let’s come together to recon this force and encourage women to continue breaking barriers.

• A stellar line-up of speakers, thought-leaders, and disruptors who will share their personal experiences and success stories.
