Virtual lunch & learn - gender equity, ethical investing and shareholder activism

Invest for change with SIX! SIX, aka Sustainable Investment Exchange is an ethical investing and shareholder advocacy platform. We're on a mission to help shareholders use their influence to make change on the big issues that matter - like the topic of this virtual lunch & learn: gender equality. 

We're delighted to welcome Christina Hobbs (CEO and co-founder of Verve Super) for this online conversation with SIX's co-founders Sophie Hall (Chief Product Officer) and Adam Verwey (CEO) about the different challenges women face in the workplace - and how you can join a movement of investors and organisations pushing big retail and childcare companies to provide their employees with paid parental leave! 

Join us on Zoom for an insight-filled 1 hour session, where you will: 

- Hear from Christina about Verve Super's focus on investing in companies that lead on gender equity and sustainability, how we address the discrimination women face in the workplace, and some of the approaches Verve has taken to these issues (check out their hard-hitting "Hiring: Full-Time Woman" ad for some insight into Verve's work!) 

- Learn from Sophie and Adam about how investor power can be used to create positive change on society's big issues, and SIX's campaign to push big companies like Premier Investments (owner of brands like Just Jeans and Peter Alexander) to support their employees with paid parental leave. 

- See a quick demonstration of how to use the SIX trading platform to create change. 

- Have plenty of time for your questions about gender equity, parental leave, shareholder activism and ethical investing. 

We look forward to seeing you online. Bring your lunch or morning tea, or join us from your mobile while on a lunchtime walk around the block. Talk soon!

This event starts at 12.30pm AEST. That's a start time of 12.30pm in TAS, VIC, NSW, ACT and QLD; 11am in NT and SA; and 10.30am in WA.
