#WomensMonth: Upholding and uplifting economies
Gratitude and honours to Heineken for its sponsorship of this inspiring showcase of over 50 women in business leadership roles, and to the dynamic and diverse array of women who generously shared their time and insights to make this year's Biz Women's Month Feature possible.From advertising and media, finance to retail, data and technology, healthcare, property, logistics, coaching and consulting, women are smashing proverbial glass ceilings, working to uphold and uplift economies for all of us. To you and all our incredible women in Biz - we see you, we celebrate you, we salute you!
