Entain marks IWD with action, connection and giving

International Women’s Day (IWD) provides an important opportunity for companies worldwide to shine a light on the impressive achievements of women.

IWD 2026 sees Entain extends its celebrations beyond the day itself with a month-long program of initiatives focusing on gender equality both in the workplace and the wider community.

"International Women’s Month at Entain is about action. It’s about connection. And it’s about creating opportunities to give - knowing we win together when we do," said Entain.

Entain's Women@Entain network proudly launched a program built around the 2026 IWD theme Give to Gain.

"Because progress doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens when we support, amplify and invest in one another," commented Entain.

Focusing on three pillars of inclusion

IWD sees Entain choose three specific pillars to guide its focus and activity:

Corporate Social Responsibility:
Championing local women’s charities across the globe and supporting women facing hardship in Entain communities.
Intersectionality:
Partnering with BeYou, Entain's LGBTQ+ network, to explore how cisgender straight women and LGBTQ+ women can show up for each other.
Leadership:
Hearing from Entain’s senior female leaders as they share their experiences, practical advice and the lessons that shaped their journeys.

Entain is levelling the playing field

Doing what's right is one of Entain's core values, which is why the company is taking the lead when it comes to creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive future, for its people, the wider sports betting industry, and society beyond. But none of this would be possible without Entain's people working at their best.

To achieve this, Entain has created a culture where everyone can feel psychologically safe, included and heard, and it is a given that each colleague is accepted for who they are. Entain celebrates individual differences, and ensures that everyone is supported, and empowered, to thrive.

Empowering colleagues to connect, collaborate and thrive

Across Entain, there are networks that empower people to connect, collaborate, and of course thrive. For example, Women@Entain is where Entain's women, and their allies, can network, mentor and inspire each other.

Entain's networks provide the many communities that make up the company's diverse workforce a safe space where they can feel accepted, heard and valued.
