Fossil Group Globally Magnifies The Power of Women on International Women’s Day

We are inspired by women who blaze trails, shatter glass ceilings and break stereotypes with their bravery, strength and curiosity. In celebration of International Women’s Day on March 8, Fossil Group amplified the power and impact of women by hosting employee events around the globe from the Americas to Asia and Europe.

“Fossil Group is committed to improving the lives of women around the world through education and mentorship opportunities,” said Janiece Evans-Page, Vice President of Global Philanthropy and Sustainability. “We aspire to be a leader in women’s empowerment by 2020 and recognize the importance of elevating their voices beyond this single day—we’re dedicated to making an impact and we’re just getting started!”
