TiE-Delhi NCR, SHEROES come together to say no to 'manels'
Whether it’s a conversation around climate change, entrepreneurship or women’s health, world over, we often notice ‘all male’ panels, commonly known as ‘manels’.
Whether it's a conversation around climate change, entrepreneurship or women's health, world over, we often notice 'all male' panels, commonly known as 'manels'.
This trend has given rise to several social media 'manel watchdogs', which regularly call out panels lacking in female representation via provocative gifs, tweets and other forms of protest.
TiE Delhi-NC, active chapter of TiE, the global not-for-profit organisation dedicated to fostering entrepreneurship and SHEROES, the women-only social network have joined hands to ensure women representation in event panels.
TiE Delhi-NCR regularly hosts panels across the spectrum of entrepreneurship and through this much-needed step wants to flip this trend by partnering with SHEROES.
The aim of this partnership is to identity the best women speakers and experts in every field, ensuring representation of women across all events and activities.
SHEROES, the women-only social network has a stellar reputation for hosting power-packed all-women panels at the SHEROES Summit, its annual flagship event.
"The world has no dearth of women doing awesome, path-breaking things in business and beyond, and SHEROES platform has most of them engaging very day as champions, mentors and also building their businesses.
TiE Delhi-NCR has been leading conversation in the space of entrepreneurship & through this partnership we'll be able to nominate an eclectic pipeline of women speakers raising the relevance of all conversations," says Sairee Chahal, founder, CEO of SHEROES.
GeetikaDayal, executive director of TiE-Delhi NCR says, "TIE is committed to more opportunities for women entrepreneurs and ensuring diversity and inclusion across the full spectrum of our events, from awards and panels at start-up events.
Through all our endeavours throughout the year, we try to ensure visibility for all stellar women founders and also create a platform for budding women entrepreneurs to learn and get inspired.
Our partnership with SHEROES is in an attempt to reach out to their vibrant community of women in the SHEROES Network."
RajanAnandan, president of TiE Delhi-NCR says, "I see this partnership as a natural progression, with TiE Delhi-NCR andSheroes coming together to shift the gender balance to exactly where it should be.
The partnership will create more spotlight opportunities for women entrepreneurs doing great work, a space for more voices to participate in larger conversations and all-round development in areas like funding, mentorship and thought leadership."
