Accelerating Action Together: A Powerful International Women's Day Event
On March 13, PrimeTime Business and Professional Women’s Association, in collaboration with KeyNote Women Speakers Directory and Expat Living Singapore, hosted an unforgettable International Women’s Day event: Speak to Inspire – Accelerating Action Together.
The atmosphere was electric as our inspiring speakers captivated, empowered, and encouraged everyone present. With insightful talks, practical takeaways, and engaging discussions, we explored what it truly means to accelerate action as women, professionals, and leaders.
Why We Still Need to Celebrate International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day remains as essential as ever. Despite the progress made, women around the world continue to face significant barriers to equality in the workplace, leadership, and society at large. This day serves as a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come and how far we still have to go. It’s a moment to amplify women’s voices, advocate for their rights, and take actionable steps toward a more just and equitable world. Celebrating International Women’s Day also strengthens our community, providing opportunities to inspire, support, and empower one another. Because when women rise, we all rise.
