We believe in celebrating women every day, but especially on International Women's Day! We've come a long way but the fight for equality continues. The statistics in NY are sobering: - Mothers are paid just 58 cents for every dollar paid to working dads - Only 19% of Venture Capital funding goes to Women That's why Women.NYC was founded: We empower women to dream big and break barriers. Since our launch, we've helped thousands build substantive networks, get access to valuable resources and become the leaders they were meant to be. Check out this short explainer video and discover how Women.NYC can help YOU reach your full potential! Let's rewrite the future, together.

Empowering women to pursue their 'dream job' at every stage of their career is at the heart of what we do! Thank you, Sarah, for shining a light on the incredible impact of our initiatives in partnership with Biolabs@NYULangone. Together, we're moving #WomenForwardNYC!
It was a pleasure hosting a group of talented female students from the NYC Department of Youth & Community Development yesterday! We kicked things off with tours of our facility followed by a lively panel discussion about career paths, entrepreneurship and professional development. Aligned with Office of Mayor-Elect Eric Adams "Women Forward NYC" initiative, this event provided these young women with valuable insights and inspiration. We appreciated the questions and how engaging the discussions were. Huge thanks to our amazing panelists Carolina Barsa of FitBiomics, Rohini Kalvakuntla of Helex, Rupsa Basu, M.Sc, Ph.D. of Humane Genomics and everyone who participated. Together we are working toward gender equality and empowering the next generation of female leaders! #WomenForwardNYC #Empowerment #GenderEquality #ProfessionalDevelopment
