Having both women and men represented at the top table is crucial to successful leadership. Today, there are still far too few women in senior positions including on boards.

This event will discuss the importance of equality and inclusion in the boardroom and the need to push the agenda for greater gender balance in Ireland and at EU level – it’s time to level up!
