Join senior leaders from business and politics for an exclusive evening with Change the Race Ratio and the Parker Review, as the Review unveils its latest findings on ethnic diversity across UK business leadership.
Change the Race Ratio is the leading campaign in the UK calling for and supporting businesses to take action to improve racial and ethnic minority representation in corporate leadership. Change the Race Ratio works closely with the Parker Review and brings together evidence, accountability, convening and practical support to help businesses navigate this strategic agenda with confidence.
The Parker Review Annual Report remains the definitive benchmark for ethnic diversity in UK business leadership. Since the Review began in 2015, the composition of FTSE 350 boards has undergone meaningful change—becoming more ethnically diverse and more reflective of modern British society.
This event offers executive committee and board members a unique opportunity to gain authoritative insights, understand the progress made, and engage directly with the leaders shaping the future of business leadership.
