WEF 2026 Expands Its Impact as a Key Platform for Female Leadership in Guatemala

WEF Guatemala 2026 will bring together executives, entrepreneurs and emerging leaders on May 27 in Guatemala City, creating a space focused on leadership, strategic thinking and decision-making. As conversations around gender equity continue to evolve across the region, the forum aims to strengthen the role of women in corporate and business leadership across Central America.

The event will take place at Épica, AVIA Zona 10, and is expected to convene professionals seeking to expand both their leadership capabilities and their influence within increasingly complex business environments.

A platform focused on strategic leadership and execution

Over previous editions, the Women Executive Forum has impacted more than 2,000 women, evolving from a networking initiative into a platform designed to generate strategic opportunities and long-term professional alliances.

Unlike traditional leadership events centered mainly on inspiration, WEF Guatemala 2026 will focus on practical execution. The agenda combines keynote sessions, high-level panels and curated networking spaces intended to foster meaningful professional connections beyond the event itself.

The forum will feature executives, founders and industry leaders from sectors including banking, technology, healthcare and consumer goods.

Regional executives and founders will headline the agenda

Among the confirmed speakers are:

• Michelle Vides
• Maria José Casafont
• Claudia Cifuentes
• Esthefany Moscoso
• Susy Le Sage
• Anahid Godínez
• Cinthya Samayoa
• Jennifer Medina
• Mariana Zavattieri
• Ana Lucía Paíz
• Mirian Alas
• Linda Contreras
• Jenniffer Guzmán

The speaker lineup reflects the growing participation of women leading transformation processes across multiple industries in Latin America.

Acción Mujer aims to build a stronger leadership ecosystem

The forum is organized by Acción Mujer, a platform focused on connecting education, innovation, networking and strategic skill development for women across the region.

Its broader mission goes beyond the event itself. The initiative seeks to help create an ecosystem where women not only participate in leadership spaces, but also influence economic, technological and social decision-making processes.

Central America faces a key moment for women in leadership

While female leadership has continued to grow across Latin America, access to positions of influence remains uneven. In response, initiatives such as the Women Executive Forum are working to accelerate change through three main pillars:

• Access to high-level professional networks
• Training in strategic thinking
• Exposure to global leadership and technology trends

The objective is to increase the number of women in positions of influence while strengthening their impact on business decision-making throughout the region.
