Celebrating, Inspiring and Supporting a new Generation of Talent

The Women of the Future Programme is a vibrant and impactful community that connects women across all industries on a global scale. Its many initiatives seek to burst open the female leadership pipeline, celebrating success but also creating a collaborative global community that can share expertise, facilitate collaboration, and amplify the impact of each leader's work.

Led by Pinky Lilani CBE DL, we have built a remarkable, informal community of influential women determined not only to build professional and personal relationships with one another, but to be advocates for an exciting new generation of talent.
