The 2025 Most Powerful Women Summit took place Oct. 13-15, 2025, in Washington, D.C. The conference and its livestream have concluded. Find Fortune’s coverage here.
The Most Powerful Women (MPW) franchise started in 1998 with the publication of the first-ever Most Powerful Women in Business ranking. The response to this list made it clear that these trailblazing women needed a platform to come together and discuss the unique challenges they were facing. And so, Fortune MPW evolved into an extraordinary community of leaders that gathered at invite-only events, such as the annual Summit.
This year’s theme was Leading in a Dynamic World. Business and the world are changing fast. How do global leaders respond to this complex environment in a way that drives their companies and society forward?
Women from the world’s most influential businesses, along with Fortune’s award-winning journalists, gathered for candid, in-depth conversations about today’s business landscape and the new leadership models that are shaping where we go next. The event included a gala dinner, Michelin-star meals, exclusive activities, and networking with a peer group like no other.
