Join Max Mara & World Woman Foundation for IWD 2026.

Celebrate International Women’s Day and enjoy a conversation & cocktails with female leaders.

This International Women’s Day, join an intimate gathering of leaders, creators, and founders who chose action even when the outcome was uncertain.

For generations, women have been left outside the rooms where decisions shape industries and economies. Progress does not come from comfort. It comes from courage.

Some risked their careers.
Some risked their voices.
Some risked being the first in the room, or the only one.

At the current pace, global gender equality could take 132 years. We believe that timeline must change.

This is more than a panel.
This is a commitment to move forward together.

Be risk takers.
Be change makers.
Be the future.
Let’s build a world that works for women.
