The panelists will tackle key themes such as overcoming historical hurdles, fostering innovation in publishing, championing diversity and inclusion, and shaping women’s careers in the industry.

Led by early career professional women who graduated from Emerson College, this meeting features an esteemed panel of influential women in academic publishing.
