8th Annual Foward Women's Leadership Forum - If Not Now, When?

The Forward Women’s Leadership Forum (FWLF) is more than an event. It’s a community, sisterhood, and strength. Each year, hundreds of women from across industries come together to celebrate, uplift, and learn from one another.

At FWLF, you are not alone. You’ll be surrounded by a powerful circle of sisters who understand your journey, share your challenges, and cheer for your victories.

Our 2026 theme — “If Not Now, When?” — is both a call to action and a reminder: the time is now to rise, connect, and move forward together.
