Many businesswomen from all over the world came together to connect and learn.

Moreover, women shared many experiences during the conference. The topics of this conference were as diverse as the participants. One of the questions was why did you attend the conference. On which one of the participants said that she worked in consulting, finance, education, start-ups, and now entrepreneurship.

She further added, "I wanted to be in a space with other businesswomen with different business experiences to unite, learn and share while exploring what it means to be a "futurist" today." Secondly, they asked women what they learned at the conference.

"Being a futurist, as so eloquently phrased by Manager, Global Consumer Trends and Futuring at Ford Motor Company Sheryl Connelly, encompasses being curious and imaginative around the question – How to service/serve communities and the marketplace in the future?" Moreover, with that question in mind, speakers shared personal and professional experiences, as well as best practices that helped their business success.

Also, women in this conference talked about various ups and downs one might face in the business. Dealing with the problems in the industry is a skill every woman should have. Curiosity will lead businesswomen to the skies of success. Moreover, women's voices also demonstrated the power of sharing from a place of vulnerability and creating an environment of psychological safety.

The conference covered many topics, such as trends in robotics and healthcare — furthermore, some general management topics like developing clear business strategies and championing diversity and inclusion. Besides, women shared experience on how to negotiate salary, how to navigate office politics. There were countless opportunities to engage in this conference.
