Dear Members, Since our last Newsletter in December, WE has had exciting global and chapter-focused events and has continued to make progress in building the organization. In March we circled the globe with a launch of our first Asia Pacific Chapters in Hong Kong and Sydney. At the Inside ETFs conference in January we held our first anniversary WE Breakfast with a panel of leading women investment strategists and over 200 participants. The highlight so far this year in terms of engaging WE members at all our chapters around the globe were the exchange bell ringing ceremonies in March to celebrate International Women’s Day. These coordinated event were an organization-wide initiative involving all our committees, but a special thanks to Diana Tidd, Co-Head of Events and Education, and Deborah Fuhr, Co-Head of External Liaison for leading the coordination, as well as the Global Marketing Committee who managed the branding, messaging, and communications aspects of the global bell-ringings. We also successfully launched our new WE website in January that allows us to connect more easily with our members and to share our upcoming events, highlight news and career opportunities relevant to WE members. If you have not yet done so, please update your profile, view the member directory, check out the job postings and view the “Women in the Workplace” article library as well as some of the special, members-only privileges available on our site. On the website, we are very excited to share beginning today a series of three videos, recorded by WE leadership and supporters at the Inside ETF conference. Please take the opportunity to take a look at all three new WE videos – Why WE, Why Sponsor, and WE Founders! Thank you to the outstanding team at ETF Trends and Jyoti Bhagavan, Co-Head of Marketing and Communication, who worked very closely to produce these videos. Also, we want to extend a special thank you to all those that participated in the videos for sharing their unique perspectives that have helped make this video series impactful. WE Sponsors are key to our ability to hold events and educational programs and we have continued to see broad support across the industry. We are happy to announce that State Street Global Advisors (SSgA) has joined Invesco PowerShares as our second Platinum Corporate Sponsor. Thank you SSgA and PowerShares!
We would like to acknowledge the many WE members who have received significant awards for their accomplishments in the asset management field. WE Member Debbie Fuhr receives the ETF.com Lifetime Achievement Award
