International, January 2025 – Women Inspiring Network (WIN), a global non-profit initiative dedicated to paying it forward, is thrilled to announce the debut of its inaugural Women Inspiring Network—WIN Lounge event in Davos from January 20 to 24.
Building on the success of WIN’s impactful presence at Davos in 2024 and guided by its 2025 theme—Audacious Action— the WIN Lounge will transform into a gathering point for global women leaders, innovators, and influential minds at the most magical mountain against the backdrop of dreamy, snow-kissed environs of Hotel Schatzalp on January 23, 2025, to host engaging panel discussions. These power-packed discussions will unfold under two overarching themes: Meet the Disruptors: Equal. Extraordinary. Future-Forward and Generational Levers of Health and Wealth on AI, Innovation, Sustainability, Climate, Health, Gender Lens Investing and Women Leadership.
WIN will collaborate on vital gender-based discussions in conjunction with the Government of India, and US-based organizations. WIN will also host a panel discussion for the We Lead Lounge for the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and Invest India during The World Economic Forum Week in Davos 2025.
Ms Stuti Jalan, Founder of Women Inspiring Network, remarked on the significance of the upcoming event, stating, “We’re thrilled about WIN Lounge—a vibrant platform for bold ideas and impactful conversations. I’d like to acknowledge our sponsors—Tower Capital, World Gold Council, Dasra, and Encubay, and express gratitude for the support from the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women and Frontier Markets. This year’s Forum centered on Collaboration for the Intelligent Age resonates deeply with WIN’s mission to create shared impact through Audacious Action. I’m also excited to see more Indian women in the spotlight claim their place and showcase their achievements.”
