International Women’s Day

SMMT London office | 5 March | 15:00

International Women’s Day 2026  “GIVE TO GAIN”  “Sharing our knowledge and encouragement with others is key.”

On Thursday 5 March 2026, from 3:00–6:00pm, SMMT will be hosting our International Women’s Day event, sponsored by Oaklin. We will hear from speakers from the industry in short interviews followed by a panel discussion and an audience Q&A. We will then move into breakout groups to develop individual “Giving Pledges” that our guests will put into action after the event.
