Turning Up the Volume on Women's Voices

In honor of International Women’s Day, join women influencers inside and outside Univar Solutions as they share experiences and actions that can lead to increased visibility for women. Panelists will address some of the most pressing topics around gender equality and equity in the workplace, including the importance of diversity of thinking to innovation. Through personal stories and achievements, our panelists will challenge assumptions and demonstrate how critical it is for all of us – men and women – to help turn up the volume on women’s voices.

Sponsored by: Univar Solutions Women’s Inclusion Network (WIN), a global employee-led resource network with a mission to raise awareness and advocate for gender equality, by developing an environment within our organization that is inclusive, safe, and inviting for all women to succeed in any role.
