  • International Women's Day: every year Accenture people come together on March 8th to celebrate International Women's Day, to learn about the positive impact women are having on the world and Accenture. Participants enjoy exchanging ideas about women, inclusion and their impact on the global economy and Accenture's business, and join in on local events. This global celebration provides a venue for networking, building vital skills, and addressing issues that face women in the workplace and beyond.
