    1:00 PM – 2:00 PM
    Where:
    Description:

    According to a 2024 McKinsey report, nearly half of the women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health burden occurs between the ages of 20 and 64 – nearly the entire span of a woman ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s working years.Resilience aside, the symptoms and presentations of conditions – endometriosis, ovarian cancer, menopause and many more – directly interfere with a woman ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s ability to thrive at work. Ignoring these challenges doesn’t just hurt employees—it costs businesses in lost productivity, retention and innovation.

    Women are driving change, tackling these issues head-on. From the rise of Femtech to forward-thinking workplace policies, companies and leaders now have a chance to close the gap in women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health and build a healthier, more resilient workforce.

    On Thursday, March 6 at 1 p.m. (ET), join Smith Business Insight for a free, 60-minute International Women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s Day webinar, where industry experts will break down the vital link between women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health, business success and economic growth.

    Participants will learn: 

    • The many aspects of women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health and why it matters in today ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s business world
    • How investing women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health matters helps both women and the workplace
    • How technology and innovation are addressing women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health challenges
    • Practical strategies for employers and employees to support women ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ ’s health in the workplace.
