The event is organized by Think Plastic Brazil, created by INP (Brazilian Plastics Institute) and in partnership with ApexBrasil (Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency).
“The presence of women in leadership is not just a matter of representation, but an essential strategic factor for innovation and sustainable growth of companies. Bringing together women with such inspiring trajectories in this roundtable is a unique opportunity to learn and exchange experiences on the challenges and advances of gender equality in the corporate environment. Diversity of thoughts and experiences strengthens organizations and drives significant changes in society, and we are excited to promote this debate and contribute to a more inclusive and sustainable future”, says Carlos Moreira, Brazilian Plastic Institute Executive Director & Think Plastic Brazil CPO.
In the current scenario, diversity, equity and sustainability are fundamental pillars for the growth of companies. The roundtable will feature the participation of Neivia Justa, Director of Communications & Marketing and a reference in diversity and inclusion in the corporate environment; Ana Cristina Paiva, Regional Sales Manager for ExxonMobil Química in Latin America; Bruna Folster, Executive Vice President of Sales at Eco Ventures Brasil; Ianda Lopes, Legal Director at Uber; and Karen Sandhof, a senior executive with extensive experience in technology and operations.
With inspiring careers and experiences in companies such as Natura, ExxonMobil, Uber and Johnson & Johnson, the speakers will address topics such as gender equity in the job market, the challenges of female leadership, inclusion and the impacts of ESG policies in organizations.
“ Female leadership is not just about representation, but about real impact on business. More diverse and sustainable companies are also more innovative and competitive”, highlights Neivia Justa, who in addition to being a speaker, is one of the most influential voices on LinkedIn on diversity and corporate communication.
In addition to reflections on careers and challenges in the market, the roundtable will provide valuable insights on how companies can foster a more inclusive and sustainable environment, promoting structural changes that benefit society as a whole. The event is an unmissable opportunity for professionals who want to delve deeper into the topic and connect with female leaders who are transforming the market.
