Forbes is marking International Women’s Day with our 30/50 Summit featuring incredible women leaders from our 50 Over 50 and 30 Under 30 lists. The summit wraps up this evening, but one standout moment at the Summit for me so far has been the conversation between Kristin Stoller and “Never Have I Ever” star Maitreyi Ramakrishnan. Maitreyi shared invaluable advice for young female students aspiring to seize opportunities: "Gratitude should not overwhelm you in a way where you're not realizing your own worth in the room." Maggie McGrath has been leading the charge on this Summit and yesterday she interviewed Huda Beauty cofounder Mona Monica Kattan who shared how she’s built a community of 4 million-plus fans that stretches from the UAE to the United States and beyond. Over the past few days, our amazing partners in putting this whole thing together, Mika Brzezinski and Huma Abedin led a lot of important conversations on stage with leaders, changemakers and icons like Suze Orman Shania Twain and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau. And Moira Forbes continues to be a champion of women’s success, recently launching the Forbes Women & Wealth video series and continuing to spearhead our annual Power Women’s Summit – which will take place later in September. I’m thankful of Forbes’ role through our 30/50 Summit and Power Women’s Summit – where we convene leaders across sectors and generations to collaborate, solve problems and create change. #InternationalWomensDay #FemaleLeadership #Forbes3050 #3050AbuDhabi
