THE CREATIVE POWER OF UNITED WOMEN INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY I March 8th 2017 in Nyon (Switzerland) As part of the initiative dubbed “EllesVMH” instated by the LVMH Group ten years ago, Hublot celebrates feminine confidence, power, success, vision, intelligence and sensitivity at a Women’s Day held in Nyon for the female staff members who are the soul, heart and spirit of the Manufacture Hublot. First officially recognized by the United Nations in 1975, International Women’s Day has adopted the theme “Be Bold for Change” for its 2017 edition. Hublot is committed to promoting women’s talent and offering them working conditions conducive to their professional fulfilment. Such initiatives notably include its support for the Womanity Foundation since 2007, as well as its “Hublot Loves Women Award for entrepreneurship” in Japan, created in 2016. Hublot invited the women involved in the company to take part in a creative workshop enabling them to share their vision of the Hublot ladies’ watch. Their interaction and the diversity of their backgrounds and their viewpoints has enabled them to select colors and materials in giving inspiration for a potential future outline of a Hublot watch. An event entirely in tune with the Hublot philosophy advocating the importance of female within the company.
In 2016, women represented 41% of the total Hublot staff complement.
