We welcome an audience of engaged executives and board members who are interested and ready to lead LGBTQIA+ inclusion and take accountability from visibility to responsibility: to engage in the power of Corporate Responsibility in a Fragmenting World.

Pride is not a celebration without responsibility.

This leadership focused forum positions inclusive and ethical leadership as a human rights issue, an integrity issue, a future-of-work issue and a way to manage reputational risk.

We have, and we will, continue challenging leaders to confront where corporate neutrality causes harm – and what ethical leadership looks like in 2026 and beyond. Programme will include organizations such as Dottir, IDA WARG Beauty & Lumene Group, Happy Joe and Strawberry.

We offer thought provoking, fresh, and most importantly sustainable, inclusive ideas to reflect and share back to your own organizations. You sharing your experiences with other leaders and experts in different fields supports your leadership with new, fresh insights and solutions. Co-learning and brainstorming don’t remain at the level of theory. You’ll start your Pride business kick off with real awareness of situations and thoughts that you can take back to developing your own responsible and ethical leadership and inclusive operations of your organization. You will notice how much power comes from sharing thoughts and your own authenticity, and in return you receive understanding, encouragement and new perspectives.
