South Asian Women's Leadership Forum

The South Asian Women's Leadership Forum (SAWLF) is committed to the advancement of South Asian women in the marketplace. SAWLF provides educational programs and networking opportunities; conducts research; and offers outreach that supports the advancements and accomplishments of women at all stages of professional development.

SAWLF will hold its third Congress on Saturday, March 15, 2008 at the global headquarters for PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in New York City.

Congress, the largest single gathering of South Asian women professionals to be held in the US, will unite women professionals from the U.S, Canada, Europe, and Asia in order to discuss the opportunities and challenges women face as they pursue lives and careers. As a part of the day-long conference, SAWLF will present twenty-six private and public sector women leaders who will share their stories of challenge and achievement.

"As I stood in line early on a Saturday to register for the SAWLF conference I knew that I had made the right decision to attend. The energy and excitement of that morning was carried throughout the day from a riveting luncheon keynote, which I enjoyed seated at a table of fascinating new acquaintances to the dynamic afternoon sessions. And who could forget all that hallway networking!

The entire experience was the right balance of education, interaction, inspiration and even humor (especially due to our closing comic relief)! The conversations I had that day stretched far beyond the conference. I would highly recommend SAWLF's Congress to any savvy South Asian woman looking to meet professional peers in almost any industry."
