In honor of the 45th anniversary of the Women’s Economic Round Table, we are excited to announce that the 2023 recipient of the WERT Global Prize will receive $4,500, up from the usual $2,000 award. Thanks to the Muriel F. Siebert Foundation for its generous donation to celebrate WERT’s anniversary and business journalism.
The Women’s Economic Round Table was founded in 1978 by Dr. Amelia Augustus and Maria Rolfe. The WERT Global Prize was established in 2018 with funding by a bequest from WERT and has received support from the Siebert Foundation and the global management consulting firm McKinsey & Company.
The 2023 WERT Global Prize winner will be announced in October.
