Women in Business Laidlaw Scholarship
Empowering Women Leaders
About the Scholarship
The Laidlaw Women in Business Scholarship Programme addresses the persistent underrepresentation of women in senior leadership roles. Our Scholarships at top business schools empower exceptional women with the skills, knowledge, and networks to break the glass ceiling and achieve their full potential as leaders.
Important: Scholarships are awarded by our partner schools, not by the Foundation. Please visit your business school’s Laidlaw Programme page or contact their team for detailed information and in order to apply.
Transforming the Future of Leadership
Our vision is a future where it is the norm for women to be fully represented in the C-Suite and in senior leadership teams across every sector.
To date, we have supported over 150 extraordinary women with Scholarships at world-leading business schools, including London Business School, HEC Paris, IE Business School, IESE, and Oxford University’s Saïd Business School.
