Forbes 'Power Rising' Summit 2024 Sparks Change in Sydney

Forbes Australia has released the details of its highly anticipated second annual Women's Summit, "Power Rising," which will take place on March 26 at the Roslyn Packer Theatre in Walsh Bay, Sydney. Following the success of the 2023 event, which drew over 1,600 people and had a strong roster of speakers, this year's Summit intends to continue that momentum.

"Power Rising" will feature a stellar cast of over 20 speakers, including Robyn Denholm, Chair of Tesla and the Tech Council of Australia; Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, CEO of Xero; climate communicator Yael Stone; and Sarah Walsh, former Matilda and Head of Women's Football for Football Australia.

The event will cover important subjects through panels such as The Power of Leadership, The Power of Responsibility, The Power of Innovation, The Power of Creativity, and The Power of Product. Sarah O'Carroll, Editor-in-Chief of Forbes Australia, highlighted her delight for this year's roster, particularly fireside conversations with Robyn Denholm and Sukhinder Singh Cassidy.

The Summit seeks to highlight Australian women who are actively crafting a better future in an ever-changing environment. O'Carroll stressed the necessity of creating a community that represents Forbes' editorial pillar, "ideas that change the world."

NAB Private Wealth returns as the presenting sponsor, while Kyndryl joins as the platinum sponsor. The event precedes the Forbes Australia Leadership Forum on February 27 and is the publication's second big event in 2024. Additional speakers are likely to be announced in the following weeks, ensuring a vibrant and informative Summit for all attendees.
