World’s most celebrated CEO Indra Nooyi recently visited Victoria’s Minister for Women, Gabrielle Williams MP at Victorian parliament.

The Minister for Women, Youth and Prevention of Family Violence, Gabrielle Williams MP, met with International Cricket Council director and former PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi at Victoria’s Parliament House this week to discuss gender equality and women’s leadership.

The pair discussed Victoria’s nation leading work on gender equality—including conducting the first ever Royal Commission into the Prevention of Family Violence.

The Victorian Government has committed to implementing all 227 recommendations of the Royal Commission and creating a more inclusive, responsive, safe and accountable family violence system that supports all Victorians.

The pair also turned to their efforts to champion diversity and the power of education to empower women in schools, workplaces and the role that government and business can play to support young women to take up leadership roles in the workplace and across society.

To inspire our next generation of sports stars, the Victorian Government secured the Women’s T20 World Cup final at the MCG on International Women’s Day in 2020.

Both Ms Nooyi and the Minister said they looked forward to celebrating one of the biggest events in women’s sport next year and the message it offers girls and cricket fans in Melbourne and all around the world.
