Pledges for Progress &
MOU Partnerships


Commitments That Create Impact
April 6–7, 2026
THE PROBLEM

Inspiration Without Follow-Through

For too long, summits have ended with inspiration but no tangible outcomes. Conversations fade, commitments are forgotten, and progress stalls.
our solution

From Dialogue to Documented Action

In 2026, we introduce On-Stage Pledges & MOU Signings to ensure conversations translate into real commitments that move the ecosystem forward.
We turn intention into action — and visibility into responsibility.
WhaT ARE PLEDGES?

Not financial asks,

They are specific, measurable commitments of:

Access

Networks, platforms, boards.

Capability

Mentorship, advisory, training.

Capital

Funding, procurement, investment.

Time

Office hours, programs, support.

Championing initiatives, policy change.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can make a pledge or MOU?

Pledges are open to all attendees, including individuals and representatives of organizations such as corporations, investors, family offices, government entities, foundations, and founders. You can pledge as an individual or on behalf of your organization.

Is there a limit on how many people or organizations can participate?

Yes, to ensure a seamless experience and give each moment the attention it deserves:
Pledges: Capped at 100 individuals/organizations.
MOUs: Capped at 78 curated signing slots.
We encourage you to register your interest early.

What should we include in our MOU description?

Your description should be a clear and concise statement (1-2 lines) that outlines the goal of your partnership.

Do I have to attend the Summit in person to participate?

Yes, in-person attendance is mandatory for both Pledges and MOUs. The experience is designed to be a powerful, live moment of commitment shared with the Summit community, ensuring visibility and creating a shared sense of accountability.

What makes a good Pledge?

A strong pledge is specific, measurable, and achievable within 12 months. It should clearly state what you will do, for whom, and to what extent. Instead of "I will support women," a stronger pledge is, "I will mentor three women-led startups through my firm's accelerator program in the next year."

How will progress be tracked after the Summit?

We believe in "light-touch" accountability.
For Pledges: About one year after the Summit, we will invite participants to share a brief, informal update on their progress. This could be a short paragraph, a link to a public announcement, or a quick testimonial.
For MOUs: We will document the signed partnerships and may follow up to feature successful outcomes in our Impact Report.
This follow-up is designed to celebrate collective wins and inform our Women Shaping Wealth Impact Review.
