When:  Nov 30, 2023 from 09:30 to 14:00 (ET)
Current attitudes towards gender health are often outdated. ‘Women’s issues’ remain under-addressed, minimized, trivialized, inappropriately objectified, and even ignored, leaving individuals bearing multiple burdens and unable to get the support they need. At the same time, in the past few decades, we have seen huge leaps in science, technology and social awareness. We now have the capabilities, resources, and willpower to challenge bias and conventions, break taboos and normalize more open discussion and awareness around gender health. We can use hard data, compelling insights and innovative thinking to change attitudes, beliefs, processes, and systems to improve the lives of women in the workplace and beyond. Brought to you by HBA Basel and HBA Amsterdam, with the support of key players in the healthcare industry, the summit will have three distinct topics of discussion: • Gender Health Equity: A panel discussion • Fertility: Navigating the journey and lived experience sharing • Menopause: The significance of it in the workplace Our panelists include: • Nicola Greenway, Global HR Leader, Takeda Pharmaceuticals • Alissa Pereira, Disease Area Director, Women’s Health, Roche Pharmaceuticals • Florian Schick, General Manager, Merck Switzerland • Amit Nastik, Chief Commercial Officer, Novartis • Antonella Santuccione, Co-Founder, Women’s Brain Project • Oriana Kraft, Founder, FemTechnology Summit • Patricia Gee, Partner, Deloitte These insightful sessions will be followed by a networking apero at the Novartis campus in Basel, Switzerland.
