BWAW will host its fourth edition from March 5-7, 2024

FEBRUARY 21, 2024 Events

Barcelona Woman Acceleration Week (BWAW) will celebrate its fourth edition from March 5 to 7, 2024, consolidating itself as a reference event that revolves around gender equality in business and invites reflection on the visibility of women in key areas for the economy. The event, organized by the Consorci de la Zona Franca de Barcelona (CZFB), has, once again, the collaboration of the Incyde Foundation of the Spanish Chambers of Commerce and contributes to make Barcelona visible as a key city for the development of the new economy and committed to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This year, as a new feature, the event will be held over three days and the content program will be distributed in fourteen sessions. The different panels will address topics such as gender equality in the legal field, the presence of women in industry 4.0, the figure of women in the audiovisual environment, parity in large corporations and in the public sector, professional retraining in middle age, human resources management and the visibility of female talent in sectors such as programming, pharmaceuticals or health. All of this will be presented by speakers with extensive experience and a long professional career, who will analyze the reality of their respective sectors, the achievements made, as well as the main obstacles they encounter in their day-to-day work on the road to equality.

In the framework of BHEALTH, BHH's Chief Communication Officer Marja Huiskamp will moderate the panel "The female inverted pyramid in the health sector", on March 7th at 13 hrs. She'll be on-stage alongside:

The special delegate of the State in the CZFB, Pere Navarro, emphasizes that "BWAW returns once again this year to highlight the role of women in strategic sectors for economic development such as industry, logistics, health and technology, among others. This event is a clear example of CZFB's commitment to SDG 5: gender equality".

For the director of the CZFB, Blanca Sorigué, "it is a source of pride to see how Barcelona Woman Acceleration Week, in just four editions, has consolidated itself as a benchmark event designed by men and women for men and women, as this is the only way in which equality is understood and can really be achieved. Hopefully the day will come when we have to stop doing this event because it will mean that we will have reached a situation of absolute normality".

As in previous editions, the different sessions that will be held at DFactory Barcelona will be broadcast via a streaming platform and can be followed live from anywhere in the world through the web.
