Keynote Panel – Women Leaders Driving Global Economic Revolution and Recovery. Hosted by Invest Ottawa 8 AM to 9:00 AM PST The world has completely changed. COVID-19 delivered a decisive blow to global health and our global economy. The pandemic has derailed growth plans, stalled investment, eliminated market opportunities, and prompted waves of layoffs. The impact of the health and economic crisis is widespread, impacting our entire population. But not everyone is fighting from a level playing field. Women business leaders (defined as all individuals who identify as women), particularly those with intersectional identities, are disproportionately hit by this crisis. This impact is attributed to the systemic inequalities and barriers women have faced for generations, compounded by the countless challenges induced by the pandemic. Recent research from the McKinsey Global Institute underscores the devastating and disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on women. Taking action now to advance gender equality could be valuable, adding $13 trillion to global GDP in 2030 compared with the gender-regressive scenario This crisis creates opportunity for influential women decision-makers and leaders in powerful global industries take strategic action to address gender inequality and revolutionize our global economy. The time is now. And during IWW 2021, we are assembling key leaders driving this critical change. This 75-minute executive panel will focus on opportunities for women leaders, decision-makers and influencers in lucrative tech sectors to: Catalyze the growth and performance of innovation-intensive technology industries and achieve increased impact during unprecedented times; Economically empower current and future generations of women from every walk of life to build a rich, robust and diverse pipeline of leaders for the technology sector, and the many diverse industries and markets it supports; and Take targeted action to drive gender equality and the recovery of our global economy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff8cebcfcd25633938dd92c/1610155343239-K13PNX9CC8UKMVYZJ3KC/image-asset.jpeg Events - Women in Charge: Accelerating Electric Vehicles Please join us for an interactive panel discussion with leading experts from the automotive industry to illustrate the story of the growth of EV industry throughout the lens of their careers at a diverse group of Auto OEMs. We will discuss the growth of the EV industry, challenges in adoption, and as well as the outlook now and post-COVID.

Denver, Colorado Tell us about your favorite mode of transportation. What do you enjoy most about it? My favorite mode of transportation is an airplane or helicopter. I love nature and beautiful views, and I'm able to see these from my flight. I also love the serenity that comes with it. It gives me room to think, work, or just relax. Describe a fond story of you and this mode of transportation. A fond story of me on this mode of transportation was when I took a one way 13+ hours flight from Lagos, Nigeria to the USA for grad school. I was very excited for the new phase of my life, a bit scared, but I looked forward to working hard to make every of my dreams come through. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff8cebcfcd25633938dd92c/bcd996e0-69c7-464d-8fb8-ea8ca2cc87d1/IMG_1882+-+Cindy+Heredia+%281%29.jpg Move Like a Lady - Cindy Heredia Where can we find you moving around? Boston, MA Tell us about your favorite mode of transportation. What do you enjoy most about it? My favorite mode of transportation is, oddly enough, autonomous race cars! Historically, motorsports have been grounds for advancing automotive technology in the name of competition. Racing teams spend a lot of time developing increasingly sophisticated engines, suspensions, aerodynamic packages, and more, all to shave off milliseconds from lap times. Over time, the technology and the lessons learned from racing have been commercialized and adopted in the vehicles we use in our day-to-day lives. With the advent of autonomous vehicle technology, motorsports are now poised to play a similar role in its development. Autonomous racing competitions, such as the Indy Autonomous Challenge and Roborace, are challenging software, not drivers, to operate a vehicle at the limit of performance. It's been an exciting space to be a part of! Describe a fond story of you and this mode of transportation. The best memory so far is having been able to double our vehicle speed from 69mph (& crashing!) to 141mph in less than a month. This is something that my team and I are incredibly proud of because it was done on top of balancing final exams and school-related work. Additionally, it serves as a reminder of how far we're able to go working together as a team. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff8cebcfcd25633938dd92c/a5c5fdf1-8d00-4af1-b23c-4e41f89afe0f/elliott_glamour_shot+-+Frankie+James.jpg Move Like a Lady - Frankie James Where can we find you moving around? Sunnyvale, CA Tell us about your favorite mode of transportation. What do you enjoy most about it? I love cars, particularly fast ones! There are many aspects that I love about cars and driving, ranging from just how beautiful cars can be as objects, to the sense of independence I get from driving, to the rush that comes from driving in a fast and powerful car. I'm also part of a Corvette club that has not only brought me the joy of talking to other car people, but also has introduced me to wonderful friends I would never have met otherwise. Describe a fond story of you and this mode of transportation. The photo on the right is of me and my shiny baby, a 2010 Corvette Grand Sport (named Elliott!). I have wanted a Corvette forever, and I was really open about that when I joined GM. My boss at the time was horrified that (at the time) I couldn't drive a manual shifter, so he taught me on his company car, a Corvette Z06. I ordered my car mere weeks after that first lesson. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff8cebcfcd25633938dd92c/c1878a4c-f746-4afe-a534-7d97adc744d6/sonal_kapap.jpg Move Like a Lady - Sonal Kanap Where can we find you moving around? San Francisco Bay Area, California; New York; Seattle, Washington; Michigan; Chicago, Indiana Tell us about your favorite mode of transportation. What do you enjoy most about it? Car and flight. I have been passionate about cars since my childhood. Describe a fond story of you and this mode of transportation. My father taught me to drive a car at the age of 18. I used to love car racing, but I haven't gotten a chance to practice motor sports and participate in any racing competition yet. I was enthusiastic to closely work on vehicles so that I can know them better. That's why I have studied and work in the automotive industry. Now I have great knowledge about cars, so I have started Go Karting so that I can get a chance to participate in my favorite transportation sports which is car racing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff8cebcfcd25633938dd92c/af7db1f2-044b-49ea-8a1a-a56cc20d1d7f/IMG-1896.jpg Move Like a Lady - Linda Campbell Tobias Keene, D.D.S.
