Crain’s will celebrate women who are making a powerful impact on New York City and shaping the future of their industries. The event will honor 30 nominees across three categories: Women of Influence, Rising Stars, and Women-Forward Workplaces.
Women of Influence are accomplished leaders who have risen to the top of their fields while championing the advancement of other women. Rising Stars are emerging leaders driving initiatives that support and elevate women. Women-Forward Workplaces are organizations that prioritize women’s voices in leadership and implement programs, policies, and initiatives that advance women in the workplace.
Join us on June 25 for an inspiring luncheon celebrating these remarkable women and their outstanding accomplishments.
