GWPR Singapore aims to champion the value of PR, support the professional development of women in PR, and demonstrate the impact of communications on business.

We will achieve this by bringing members together to reshape the future of our industry, creating pathways and resources for growth and development, and curating a meaningful networking experience.

The spirit of the GWPR Singapore community is captured in three key tenets:

• Provocation: Promote thoughtful, honest exchange about pressing issues that matter and embrace vulnerability in learning from each other’s experiences. This is necessary for progressive dialogue.
• Inspiration: Celebrate each other’s ideas and work driven by communications, and in partnership with marketing, creative, intelligence, digital. Celebrate what women in communications can achieve with the support of allies. Celebrate the impact communications can make in collaboration with stakeholders.
• Connection: Nurture a conducive environment and safe space for members to build deeper and trusted relationships.
