The Australia-Korea Business Council (AKBC) invites you to our Australia-Korea Women in Leadership Lunch in Melbourne.
AKBC supports enabling pathways and opportunities for women in leadership. We strive to open doors and create a world where equality persists over tradition and talent is rewarded. We believe that diversity brings real productivity gains and there are many highly qualified women working in the Australia-Korea trade who have skills and knowledge which warrant their seat at the table. In 2022, the AKBC is hosting a series of 'Australia-Korea Women in Leadership Lunches' in three locations - Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. These events will assist women and men – working in the Australia-Korea relationship – to build leadership skills, share knowledge and establish robust, mutually-beneficial networks. We will celebrate the success and resilience of women working in the Australia-Korea bilateral relationship.
Following the Sydney lunch on 24 March, our Melbourne event will be held on Thursday 7 April, and we invite you to join us for a two-course lunch. It will be sure to strengthen your female business network and provide access to a deep pool of talent and mentor/mentee relationships.
We are delighted to be hosting this event to coincide with the Victorian Government hosting of six female journalists from the Korean Women’s Journalist Association (KWJA). The purpose of the visit is to showcase Victoria’s capabilities in medtech and biotech, while highlighting female leadership in the sector and more broadly. The journalists will be visiting a number of key institutions and companies in Melbourne with capabilities in the sector, such as The Doherty Institute, the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute. Following their return to Korea, the journalists will publish articles about their experience in Australia ahead of BioKorea, a major biotech industry trade show in May. We look forward to welcoming the delegation to this lunch.
This event is also sponsored by the Australia-Korea Foundation.
This event is for you if:
- You are working in the Australia-Korea relationship
- You are a current or emerging leader, with a growth mindset
- You are looking to expand your network.
