As an internationally active media and technology group, Ringier has been using its publishing and technological power to promote gender equality since the end of 2019. The aim is to increase the visibility of women in the media and give women and men an equal voice. Central to this approach is the measurement of the EqualVoice Factor, which is based on a semantic algorithm.

EqualVoice Summit in Zurich with prestigious international speakers

On 2 May 2022, Ringier CEO Marc Walder and CFO Annabella Bassler invited top executives from the international world of business and media to Zurich to engage in a constructive dialogue on gender equality in the media at the EqualVoice Summit.

The programme included speeches and presentations by internationally renowned personalities such as human rights barrister Amal Clooney, Federal Councilor and Minister of Justice Karin Keller-Sutter, behavioral economist Professor Iris Bohnet from Harvard University, Mariana Santos, founder and CEO of Chicas Poderosas, Carolina Müller-Möhl, founder and President of the Müller-Möhl Foundation, Corine Mauch, Mayor of Zurich, and Brittany Kaiser, co-founder of the Own Your Data Foundation.

Panel members Aleksandra Karasinska, Editor-in-Chief of the Polish Forbes Women, Nicole Schwab, Co-Director of Nature-Based Solutions WEF, Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Axel Springer SE and Christian Van Thillo, Executive Chairman of the Belgian-Dutch DPG Media Group discussed the responsibility of the media in terms of gender equality.

The EqualVoice Summit was rounded off with a performance by singer-songwriter Amy Macdonald.

The Müller-Möhl Foundation, Jaguar and Land Rover Switzerland are all partners of the EqualVoice Summit.

Ringier CEO Marc Walder: «The EqualVoice Summit addresses the role of the media when it comes to women’s visibility. Women continue to be dramatically underrepresented. The media have the power to give women more visibility in all areas in the interest of equality between women and men. And, it goes without saying, in the interests of readers of both genders.»

Federal Councilor Karin Keller-Sutter: «I’m delighted to be appearing at the Equal Voice Summit to support the cause of making women more visible in the media. The visibility of female politicians and experts in the media is key to achieving equality.»

Amal Clooney, barrister who specializes in international law and human rights: «As women, we may not be a minority, but there is a bond that we all share. It is not a bond of geography. Or religion. Or culture. It is a bond of shared experience – experiences that only women go through and struggles that only women face.»
