A CONFERENCE FOCUSED ON ACTION

In early April, the editors of The Wall Street Journal will bring together 150 CEOs, policy makers, industry leaders and subject-matter experts – women and men – for a unique, highly interactive working session on the powerful impact of women in the economy.

Soluna Institute has been invited to attend and take part in this elite task force.

The mission of this executive task force is to address key issues that affect not only women and their potential, but also companies and their ability to harness the opportunities offered by this vital segment of the workforce.

Using a fresh, data-driven approach, the task force’s deliberations will spring from original research commissioned by the Journal and conducted by McKinsey & Company for release at the conference. Through provocative interviews with the Journal’s editors, luminaries from many fields will share insights to inform the participants’ work.

Central to the conference program are dynamic working groups focused on specific industries – finance, technology, science and health care, law, government, and media – as well as on key career stages. In these sessions, participants will collaborate to identify the most urgent priorities for business and government, and to create action plans for immediate solutions. Task Force members will preselect their working sessions. For a list of co-chairs and subject matter experts associated with each working group, and other featured participants, please click here.

The task force findings and original research will be published in a special worldwide report in The Wall Street Journal and on WSJ.com.

Participation is by invitation only. Applications are welcome; to apply, please request an invitation.
