Cambridge Women Can

The Wo+Men’s Leadership Centre was thrilled to announce the return of their annual conference. The week-long programme of online keynote conversations and panel discussions, delivered a thought-provoking series from outstanding leaders. The Wo+Men’s Leadership Centre would like to thank Goldman Sachs for their generous sponsorship of the conference again this year.  

This year’s conference recognised the impact of the pandemic and, in an outstanding conference programme, took a closer look at flexibility and the future of work; how to build resilience; creating actionable equity, diversity and inclusion agendas and how to shape a sustainable mindset.
