Women have been in mainstream business for 30 years, but still make up less than 16 percent of the corporate officers in America’s 500 largest companies. The Forte Foundation is dedicated to educating and encouraging women to pursue business careers and Olin has been a sponsor of the foundation for the past five years.

Sarah Miller, Director of MBA Student Affairs and Karen Heise, Associate Director, Business Development represented Olin at the recent Forte Foundation Women’s Leadership Conference in New York and received recognition, on behalf of the school, for Olin’s sponsorship.
