Despite their impact, women remain underrepresented in major hosting roles, at the Oscars, there have been 86 male host appearances compared to just 25 by women.

Female awards hosts bring more than professionalism and presence. They represent progress. Whether leading International Women’s Day events, hosting women in sport panels or fronting global conferences, they help amplify voices that are still underrepresented. In 2023, only 35% of speaking roles in films were held by women, and women held just 10.4% of leadership positions at Fortune 500 companies. Choosing a female host shows a clear commitment to equality, inclusion and visible leadership.

Women bring a unique blend of emotional intelligence, adaptability and audience connection to the stage. As diversity and inclusion become central to organisational values, female-led events foster greater engagement and a sense of belonging. Hosts with backgrounds in business, sport or media reflect the progress many brands aim to promote. Booking a female host is not only a practical choice—it is a powerful statement about the future you want to lead.
