DiverseCon
A Forum on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging
The Conference
A Day of Engaging & Thought-Provoking Conversation
Diversity | Equity | Inclusion | Belonging
If you believe, as we believe, that diversity leads to better products, and we're all about making products that enrich people's lives, then you obviously put a ton of energy behind diversity the same way you would put a ton of energy behind anything else that is truly important.
Tim Cook, CEO of Apple
THE DIVERSECON EXPERIENCE
DiverseCon is a unique event that aims to inspire, transform and accelerate diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) in the Business-to-Business ecosystem. The inaugural DiverseCon forum is an extraordinary opportunity to listen to and learn from thought leaders, influencers, and change-makers who are passionate about these issues, and excited about sharing their expertise with you.
This conference will focus on emerging trends, highlight best practices, and share new concepts to give your business a competitive advantage by achieving a more diverse and inclusive workforce, while recognizing the value of building a network of suppliers and partners who care about diversity within their own companies.
HOW DIVERSECON WILL HELP YOUR BUSINESS
As the leading B2B forum on DEIB, DiverseCon is designed to explain how diversity advances corporate culture and promotes economic progress. The conference will provide you with the tools you need to effectively diversify your workforce, and the data to demonstrate how a more inclusive supply chain leads to corporate success.
An array of panels will ensure you have the chance to hear from like-minded companies interested in diversifying their own business partners, to learn about and discuss the challenges you may face in achieving your diversity goals and, importantly, to secure new business.
THE BOTTOM LINE
DiverseCon means business success!
