IWD 2020: Celebrating the amazing women of the Park
International Women’s Day is set aside to celebrate and recognize women across the world. At Parkway Projects, we love to celebrate our women always.
Women have shaped key technological developments across the world and we are proud the same is true at Parkway Projects. The women of the park are key development, design, customer experience and business leaders on our team as we empower businesses and increase access to financial services.
On Friday, we gathered together to reflect on the importance of International Women’s Day. We honoured these amazing women of the park by writing some appreciation notes in recognition of their hardwork, commitment and the vibe they bring to the office daily.
To celebrate International Women’s Day today, we decided to shine the spotlight on them.
