The 50 Over 50 is a list dedicated to highlighting women over the age of 50 who are shattering age and gender norms across all sectors the global economy. We want you to tell us who in Asia, Europe, Middle East and Africa should be on our global lists.
Though the year is different, what we’re looking for remains the same: women who are actively stepping into their power in their sixth decade or beyond. We’re looking for stories about accelerating or recreating careers to reach the highest echelons of a business or field after turning 50—with an eye on women who have overcome significant odds.
Take, for instance, 59-year-old Falguni Nayar: Based in India, Nayar spent the first two decades of her career working as an investment banker, leading IPOs and helping other entrepreneurs achieve their dreams. In 2012, she decided to work for herself, investing $2 million of her own savings to launch beauty and retail company Nykaa. Last year, Nayar took Nykaa public at a $13 billion valuation, and the transaction made Nayar India’s richest self-made woman.
Or consider Christine Lagarde, who is now 66. In 2011, at 55, she was the first woman appointed to run the International Monetary Fund. In 2019, she became the first female president of the European Central Bank, a role that puts her in charge of the monetary policy that affects Europe’s nearly 750 million citizens.
