About the panel

Global Catalyst’s “Future-Proofing” panel puts a youth advocate in the moderator’s chair, giving her a stage to use her voice alongside influential women across industries.

Our youth moderator will lead a conversation with these leaders about the work being done to help youth lead, what it means to invest in rising stars, and how to future-proof an uncertain future. Together, they will explore how girls can lead.
