To mark the 18th edition of its inaugural Women’s Initiative, Cartier took celebrations to Shenzhen, China, hosting a gala for the new cohort of 33 fellows of this year’s program, joined by host Sandi Toksvig and supermodel and entrepreneur, Karlie Kloss.
Under the maxim of ‘Forces for Change’, this year, too, CWI highlighted the businesses of female impact entrepreneurs from around the globe, whose outstanding achievements move the needle for their local communities, tackling social, environmental and sustainable issues by way of innovative solutions.
‘In the past few years, there have been so many initiatives to increase investment in female-founded businesses, but many are just about coaching or mentoring. Cartier have set up a programme that goes way beyond that. Cartier Women’s Initiative is doing the basics but they are also giving me a global platform to tell the story about why my business matters.
