More about Women in Innovation & WIN Relay

Women in Innovation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded to close the gender gap in innovation. WIN includes over 4,000 members in New York, San Francisco, and London. Our monthly events bring together a variety of innovators to explore topics like leadership, development, and growth. Interactive activities and hands-on workshops create connections that go beyond traditional networking.

WIN Relay is a first-of-its-kind experience from the global non-profit Women in Innovation designed to support senior women working in innovation to grow in their careers, prepare to lead the industry, and advance a more equitable future. Over the course of six months, 25 senior women came together every Tuesday to hear from industry leaders and learn from one another through peer coaching, breakout discussions, group projects and more.
