We are proud to share the participation of our attorneys Carla Rojas Pardini and Natalia De Obaldía, both members of the Association of Women Directors of Panama (ADP, by its acronym in Spanish), as well as our associates Valerie Barrios, Anna Bernal, and Odalys Prado, in the XI Annual ADP Conference.

This event brought together business leaders, board members, and executives committed to excellence and gender equity in the corporate sphere, consolidating female leadership in Panama and its role in strengthening board effectiveness through inclusion.

The conference featured a keynote presentation by Tim Koller, partner at McKinsey & Company and a renowned corporate finance expert, who delivered the lecture “From Valuation to Vision: Insights for Business Leaders.” Koller shared key tools and perspectives on value creation, corporate strategy, and the importance of financial decisions aligned with a sustainable business vision.

As highlighted by Ana Karina Smith Cain, President of ADP:
“This gathering reaffirms our commitment to continue creating spaces for training and reflection that contribute to the effectiveness of boards in Panama, through the inclusion of highly qualified women.”

For over a decade, ADP has organized high-level conferences featuring renowned international speakers, consolidating its reputation as a leading advocate for good corporate governance practices and gender equity.

The participation of our attorneys in this conference reflects Quijano & Associates’ ongoing commitment to fostering female talent, promoting professional excellence, and upholding international standards of leadership and corporate governance in Panama.
