In spring 2025, London will once again host the Arab Women of the Year Awards and Arab Women’s Summit. This year, the event will be larger than ever before and include a multi-day schedule of activities and events designed to engage our guests and sponsors.

The event will bring together prominent individuals, organisations, brands and institutions from the UK and Arab world, strengthening ties between them and building relationships.

The Awards Ceremony and Gala Dinner will be held at one of London’s top hotels, recognising a group of outstanding Arab women for their achievements. The Summit will then take place at the iconic royal palace, Lancaster House, where women’s voices and experiences will take centre stage, discussing the most topical and important issues of today.

 

Unlike other women’s summits, we shine a spotlight on the women achieving remarkable things and innovating their fields. We believe this dispels stereotypes and misconceptions, changing the narrative of women as victims and instead spreading a message of the power they can hold. Therefore, every year our sessions are on the most important topics concerning international relations, cultural exchange, innovation and the next generation. 

 

Held annually in the iconic Lancaster House, the Arab Women’s Summit amplifies women’s voices and brings Arab culture into  the heart of London.

Lancaster House

Lancaster House (originally known as York House and then Stafford House) is a royal palace on The Mall in the St James's district in the West End of London. Situated close to Buckingham Palace, this historic house offers a magnificent setting, as much of the site was once part of the palace grounds. Initially planned for Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany, it was ultimately completed by the Duke of Sutherland, then Marquess of Stafford, as an aristocratic townhouse in the early 19th century, and known for its lavish interiors. Gifted to the government in the early 20th century, it houses the government's wine cellars and was home to the London Museum until World War II. Now used for diplomatic receptions and related functions by the Foreign Office, it is a historic Grade I listed building, and its interiors are sometimes used in films or television as a stand in for Buckingham Palace.
