Accelerate: Tech Edition is SOLD OUT! 🚀 In the tech industry, 50% of women drop out by the time they turn 35—a phenomenon we call the missing middle.

If your new year’s resolution involves taking your finances more seriously, this is the year to do it. We’re in the throes of a massive general wealth transfer. “Women are controlling more and more global wealth,” said Ida Liu, the Global Head of Citi Private Bank.

True change happens when employees and leaders alike understand the human impact of harassment and are committed to preventing it," says Sharon Gaffka, violence against women and girls (VAWG) activist.
