In March 2022, International Women’s Day is bringing us together once again to celebrate the bold, brilliant women in our community.
About this event
Kickass Women has become a hotly anticipated event in our calendar – and v3.0 promises to be the most special yet. In a day-long programme of talks, workshops and special features, a group of #BoldAndBorderless women will join forces to tell us their incredible stories and show us how we can each become part of a very different future.
After two long years of separation, we can’t wait to come together – IRL and online – with the goal of finding the silver linings of what we’ve endured and breaking down barriers to connection and inclusion for women everywhere. We’ll share knowledge and insight, and offer practical ways to become a truly #BoldAndBorderless women.
We’ll wrap up the day with a #PLATF9RMconversation on what it means to be Bold Without Borders. Our special panel of speakers will dig deep into how the social landscape is changing, and how women everywhere can tap into the opportunities opening up before us.
