In 2018, Women on Boards (Senate Bill 826) was signed into law to advance equitable gender representation on California corporate boards. California is the first state in the nation to require all publicly held domestic or foreign corporations whose principal executive offices are located in California to have at least one female director on their boards by December 31, 2019, either by filling an open seat or by adding a seat. One or two more female directors would be required, depending upon the size of the publicly held corporation by December 31, 2021.

As that landmark is quickly approaching, we envisioned Women on Board to go well beyond that mark and make it as easy as possible for both Corporate and Non-profit boards around the world and throughout all industries to not only fulfill these requirements, but reach Board Equity right now.

We’ve created a free to use and fully democratized site that allows any woman or non-binary individual to create a publicly visible profile with all the information needed for corporations or non-profits of any size to securely reach out to prospective candidates.
