Introduction to 3rd Edition of D&I Summit<\/h1>
In today's interconnected world, the principles of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) have emerged as crucial cornerstones of organisational success. Inclusive businesses not only reap tangible business value (for example, employees who experience or witness discrimination, bias or disrespect are nearly 1.4 times more likely to quit), but also when individuals from varied walks of life come together, they bring unique insights and problem-solving approaches to the table. This diversity of thought sparks innovation, enabling businesses to stay agile and responsive to challenges.<\/div><\/div>[vc_raw_html]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[\/vc_raw_html]
Recognizing the imperative for collective action, Global DEI Alliance by The Times Group is delighted to announce the third edition of ET NOW Diversity and Inclusion Summit, which aims to bring together thought leaders, industry experts, and changemakers to explore and strategize ways to advance DEI principles in workplaces and beyond. It will be a deep exploration of the evolving challenges and opportunities in fostering DEI against the backdrop of changes in technology, social and political dynamics, and the economy.

Fact - check<\/h1>
In the past year alone, the realm of DEI witnessed significant shifts. Nasdaq's mandate requiring its listed companies to disclose boardroom diversity marked a pivotal move towards transparency. Simultaneously, Elon Musk's controversial call for \u2018DEI must DIE\u2019 stirred debate across the internet. Amid these, tech behemoths such as Google and Meta opted to curtail their DEI programmes. This occurred against the backdrop of an expanding body of work in AI, which, despite its growth, grapples with inherent biases. Consequently, there's a renewed urgency to conscientiously construct workplaces that embrace diversity and ensure equitable representation.<\/p>\n

McKinsey\u2019s latest report on Why Diversity Matters Even More, published in December 2023, spanning 1,265 companies in 23 countries makes a business case for gender diversity at a time when companies are under pressure to maintain financial performance. It says the financial outperformance gap for top-quartile companies in gender diversity has risen from 15 percent in 2015 to 39 percent in 2023. Similarly, companies in the top quartile for ethnic diversity show an average 27 percent financial advantage over others. Meanwhile, those in the bottom quartile for both are 66 percent less likely to outperform financially on average, up from 27 percent in 2020, indicating that lack of diversity may be getting more expensive.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”1.085rem” alter_height=”none” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” css_animation=”none” css=”.vc_custom_1699855667124{background-color: #ffffff !important;}” el_id=”ctb”][vc_column css_animation=”zoomIn” width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1716370379100{background-image: url(https:\/\/et-edge.com\/conferences\/diversityandinclusion\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2-about-2.jpg?id=1807) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”” alter_height=”large” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space height=”” alter_height=”large” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space height=”” alter_height=”large” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space height=”” alter_height=”large” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”zoomIn” width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1715326193295{background-color: #fcfbfa !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”” alter_height=”large” hide_on_mobile=”1,3″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_col-md-offset-1 vc_col-md-10″ css=”.vc_custom_1489502224783{padding-right: 2em !important;padding-left: 2em !important;}”]
