Markets Media Crushes ‘Women Crush Wednesday’

08.13.2018

Markets Media is pleased to announce the launch of its Women Crush Wednesday initiative.

As part of Markets Media’s continued advocacy of the advancement and recognition of women in finance, MM will run its own WCW content on Wednesdays, telling the story of successful female market professionals each week through written and video content across our digital and social media platforms.

MM’s Women Crush Wednesday initiative kicks off three months before the publishing firm’s fourth annual Women in Finance Awards luncheon, which has grown to be one of the largest such events on Wall Street.

“We see  Women Crush Wednesday as a fun way to celebrate the very serious achievements, savvy and philanthropy of women in finance,” said Mohan Virdee, CEO of Markets Media. “These are women who need their story told to inspire and motivate the next generation of women in finance.”
