Join the Expatriate Professional Women’s Society (EPWS) for an “Evening in the Sky,” this year’s highly-anticipated annual gala event. Inspired by the Chinese saying, “Women hold up half the sky,” the 2015 gala will highlight the contributions of women to their professions, families and communities, while simultaneously providing guests with a fantastical sky-themed experience. “Evening in the Sky” will transpire at the sparkling Diamond Ballroom of the Westin Hotel Shanghai on Saturday, April 18, beginning at 6.30pm with a unique interactive cocktail reception, with many innovative photo opportunities.
Following the reception, guests will enjoy a delectable four-course gourmet dinner and musical entertainment from a master DJ under a luminous starry sky. Dancers will amaze guests with performances throughout the evening, along with captivating lighting effects. All guests will receive a luxury gift bag, and an extensive silent auction and live auction for charity will benefit the World Academy for the Future of Women. Guests are requested to attend in formal black tie attire in ‘Shades of Sky.’
This exciting Gala program will also include the 2015 ceremony for the renowned Women Leadership Awards. During the awards ceremony, EPWS, in collaboration with HULT Women in Business Club, will recognize five outstanding professional women in the community, who hold up their half of the sky, with the Women Leadership Award. One woman will be honored in each of five categories: professional excellence; young professional excellence; entrepreneurs; societal contribution; and female innovator of the year.
