VICTORIA, Seychelles — The Seychelles Investment Board (SIB) yesterday hosted a Women’s Day Forum at the Eden Bleu Hotel to celebrate the achievements of women in the finance and investment sectors. The half-day session, held under the theme ‘Women leading the future of investment’, created a platform for trailblazing women to share their insights, outline the significance of their roles, and engage in a forward-thinking dialogue about the future of investment in Seychelles.
Delegates and guests gathered to honour the contributions of women who continue to break barriers in sectors long considered male-dominated. Speakers shared personal career journeys, highlighting both the challenges faced and the opportunities created by deliberate action to advance gender equity in financial services and investment decision-making.
The forum forms part of SIB’s ongoing efforts to promote inclusive economic growth and to encourage greater participation of women in the country’s financial and investment landscape. The agency noted that events such as these are essential for building networks, strengthening professional visibility, and inspiring the next generation of female leaders in Seychelles.
