Zenith Bank Plc will commemorate International Women’s Day, IWD 2026 with a high-level seminar scheduled for Monday, March 9, 2026, at the The Civic Centre.
Aligned with the global theme, “Give to Gain,” the Bank’s seminar is themed “Take It, You Own It,” reflecting a dual message of institutional responsibility and individual empowerment. The programme is designed to encourage women to take ownership of opportunities while institutions create enabling environments for growth and leadership.
Building on previous editions, including the 2025 seminar themed “Winning On All Fronts”, the 2026 event aims to deepen conversations around women’s empowerment, leadership, equity, and sustainable impact across sectors.
Speaking ahead of the seminar, the Group Managing Director/CEO of Zenith Bank, Adaora Umeoji, said International Women’s Day serves as a reminder that meaningful progress requires intentional action.
“‘Give to Gain’ speaks to the responsibility institutions have to create real opportunities, while our theme ‘Take It, You Own It’ challenges women to step forward boldly and lead,” she stated, adding that the Bank remains committed to fostering environments where women can thrive and shape outcomes.
The seminar will feature keynote addresses, panel discussions, Q&A sessions, and curated conversations focused on leadership insight, professional development, wellbeing, and collaboration.
It is expected to bring together accomplished women and leaders across business, governance, technology, creative industries, and social impact.
Zenith Bank said the initiative reinforces its commitment to advancing inclusion and creating platforms that recognise and amplify women’s potential across industries and communities.
