In partnership with HSBC, join us for a discussion on "The Economic Empowerment of Women" for the Spring Presentation in our popular Women's Forum Series.  Based on recent research from the World Bank, this event will address the economic and cultural implications of eliminating the professional gap between men and women globally focusing on:  

• women as drivers of economic development
• the importance of female education for economic growth
• the difference between developed and emerging markets with regards to 'closing the gap.'

Discussing these key issues will be our panel of experts:
Ami Kaplan, Deputy Managing Partner of the North East Region, Deloitte - bio
Jennifer Prosek, Chief Executive Office and Founder, CJP Communications - bio
Mary Lee Rieley, Executive Director, INSEAD - bio
