The 2009 Global Summit of Women focuses on the emergence of women
as political and business leaders. Now in its 19th year, this
summit brings together women government ministers, corporate
leaders and professionals from non-profit organizations to
accelerate women's economic progress worldwide. Organizations
representing nearly 400 000 women on six continents will
participate.
This business summit focuses on exchanging creative
strategies forged by women leaders in different parts of the world,
with a roundtable for women government ministers, business skill
building sessions and strategies for business growth.
Latin America is now seeing a growing number of women running
countries, political parties, and powerful ministries.
In Asia, a new crop of female executives are leading large
businesses and are helping to shape their countries'
economies. In Europe and North America, women entrepreneurs are
dramatically increasing in numbers. Whether in the public or
private sector, women are creating new paradigms of leadership that
will influence future generations.
