On April 7th, SCHSAsia supported and sponsored an International Women’s Day Luncheon hosted by the Australian Chamber of Commerce in China. The event was a celebration of the social, political, and economic achievements of women across the globe.
According to the World Economic Forum, most of us will not see gender parity in our lifetime. This was the premise for Viva’s March Medley event in partnership with SCHSAsia and BritCham China, celebrating 103 years of International Women’s Day. The event featured three phenomenal women speakers – Shang Rong (Communications & Public Affairs VP, Microsoft), Su Cheng Harris-Simpson (Founder & CEO, SCHSAsia), and Zhu Bei (Founder, Venture Education). It took place on March 24th over a 3-course lunch at the beautiful Hotel Eclat with around 20 women professionals in attendance.
On International Women’s Day, CKGSB hosted a special-edition webinar of the Women in Leadership Forum on “Fostering Gender Equality in Leadership Roles”.
Broadcast in partnership with Asia House, the webinar convened 5 global opinion leaders — including Su Cheng Harris-Simpson, Founder of SCHSAsia and the Women Empowerment Council and Fernando Vallina, Co-Chair of the Women Empowerment Council — to shed light on empowering women in decision-making roles.
