Invitation to the inaugural Women in Commodities 2017
Over the past decades, the openness of Singapore’s economy has propelled the city state towards its ambitions to establish itself as a leading commodities trading hub. Beyond its economic achievements, Singapore has also made significant headway when it comes to diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Over the past 10 years, women’s participation rate in the workforce has increased by almost 10% - an achievement worth celebrating. But is there more that we could do?
Join us on 25 October 2017 at our inaugural Women in Commodities as we bring together professionals across agri-commodities, energy and metals sectors, to discuss how industry champions can navigate the journey from diversity to inclusion.
Highlights
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from industry veteran Ms Emily Chin, as she shares her leadership journey, the importance of diversity and inclusion, and perspective on female leadership.
