The 27^th THEME

Drive
Diversity

The theme of the 27th Conference is "Drive Diversity".
We often hear the word "diversity" used in business today, but few organizations and individuals who understand and experience its true meaning. Including diverse people in an organization, giving them fair opportunities, bringing diverse voices into the decision-making process, and including them in governance and innovation; this is diversity.
Diversity management is the key to growth not only in corporations but also in government, municipalities, schools, hospitals, and everything in between. It is the leaders of organizations and the individuals who work in these organizations that make diversity a reality.
In this 27th Conference, we will discuss how to promote diversity from a variety of perspectives, how to link them to our actions, and how to move diversity forward. Please join us for 10 hours of thought-provoking and stimulating learning and discussion.
