I don’t always write about Women’s Day, but after meeting Prof Emre Alkin PhD from Turkey, a fellow Key Opinion Leader during a business trip in Barcelona a few days ago, I knew I had to this year and also ask for his views since he lives in a country where women’s rights have not always been a top priority.

But first, when is International Women’s Day? Thursday, March 8th

What do we actually celebrate? It’s a global day where women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political.

You’ll be seeing the hashtag #PressForProgress bouncing around social channels. I encourage you to join the movement. Even if you are not a woman, you know one! Mother, sister, wife, girlfriend, neighbour, friend….
