Currently, there are two women leaders &#8211; Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and the President of the European Commission Ursula Von Der Leyen &#8211; who are invited to the official G20 Summit, yet neither has officially confirmed their attendance. What\u2019s more, the agenda for the two-day G20 Summit does not address closing the gender gap directly.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Equality Lounge\u00ae @ G20, by contrast, will host 13 panels and 50 featured&nbsp;speakers&nbsp;from diverse industries providing insights, strategies, and solutions to address gender inequality comprehensively.&nbsp;The programming is open to all without badges or exclusive invitations, reflecting The FQ\u2019s commitment to democratizing discussions on gender equality. By emphasizing the potential to inject $12 trillion into the global GDP in just five years through gender equality, The FQ is actively working to inspire a new narrative and intentional mindset to break down barriers and drive meaningful change.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is reported that the gender gap won\u2019t close for another 132 years, yet we were able to create a life-saving vaccine in less than one year, \u201d&nbsp;said Shelley Zalis, CEO and founder of The Female Quotient. \u201cIt\u2019s time to make gender equality a priority at the G20 because when you advance women, you advance the economy.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of the FQ\u2019s debut at The World Economic Forum in 2016, only 17% of badge holders were women, highlighting the glaring gender imbalance in such influential gatherings. The FQ\u2019s introduction of the Equality Lounge\u00ae was a milestone moment as it provided a platform where all women felt they belonged, fostering discussions and connections vital for advancing gender equality in the business world and beyond. In 2023, The Equality Lounge\u00ae in Davos featured over 100 women leaders as speakers with 2,000 attendees. The FQ was also recognized as a top 5 influencer at the global summit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, with the Equality Lounge\u00ae at G20, the opportunity will be in Gurgaon, India&nbsp;for world leaders, policymakers, and industry titans to change the equation and work collaboratively to close the gender gap. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a full agenda and to RSVP to The Equality Lounge\u00ae at G20 please visit&nbsp;thefemalequotient.com.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE FEMALE QUOTIENT:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Female Quotient (The FQ) is in the Business of Equality,\u00ae changing the equation to close the gender gap.&nbsp; The FQ is a woman-owned business that provides experiences, media, and solutions to women and organizations committed to advancing equality in the workplace.&nbsp; The FQ\u2019s end-to-end equality platform includes co-branded research, content campaigns, ESG reporting, counsel, and partnership opportunities at its signature Equality Lounges\u00ae.
