Empower Her: Advancing Women in the Workplace and Beyond

POWERTOFLY SUMMIT SERIES

Here are some stats:

  • Between 2019 and 2023, women-owned businesses added 1.7 million firms, $579.6 billion in revenue, and 1.4 million jobs to the economy.
  • Women now comprise 35% of workers in the United States’ 10 highest-paying occupations – up from 13% in 1980.
  • Women-owned businesses generate $2.7 trillion annually.

And yet, women’s labor force participation rate is still below pre-pandemic levels at the same time that many companies are cutting back on DEIB efforts.
