What is WIFA?
Our goal is to build a stronger female leadership and talent pipeline in Asia by providing resources, opportunities, and an empowering platform for our members. We want to facilitate networking, mentoring, learning, and experience sharing between women and men to create an inclusive work environment that nurtures female talent. Our focus will be on promoting diversity and equality in the workplace so that women can reach their full professional potential.
We also strive towards creating a comprehensive data-driven approach to identify areas of improvement with regards to supporting the career development of female professionals. To do this we aim to conduct research around gender dynamics in the workplace and develop tools that allow us to better serve our members. Furthermore, we hope to collaborate with companies in order to provide mentorship programs tailored specifically for women’s career growth.
By leveraging our corporate sponsors’ expertise and strong partnerships with other organisations, we aspire to become a leader in developing innovative solutions when it comes to building a more equitable working environment for Asian women. We believe that by investing in female talent now, we can enable future generations of female professionals across the region.

WIFA journey continues during COVID-19
With the easing of pandemic restrictions, WIFA has reverted to in person events as well as continuing with virtual panels to discuss topics of interest to our members and corporate sponsors. We launched new events such as the ESG series, the Gala Dinner, and Fitness Challenges. And our network grew bigger, adding more women to the Advisory Board (4), Steering Committee (12), and our membership base expanded to over 6,000 women and men.
