Lead to Inspire weekend
Developing extraordinary female leaders
Join us in Milan, May 12-14, 2023

This is a unique opportunity for professional women with 5-15 years of experience to learn from some of the most inspirational leaders in the business, meet peers from various industries and backgrounds across Europe and the Middle East, and develop skills to reach their full potential.
