In the heart of Midtown Manhattan, Beyond Sushi served as the venue for a dynamic gathering during “Women in Climate Week NYC ‘23”. With approximately 75 women representing diverse industries, the event was a hub of discussion, networking, and recognition for those leading the charge in sustainability. Against the backdrop of plant-based sushi and vegan fare, the occasion underscored the crucial role of women in shaping a more environmentally conscious future.

As an event photographer, I had the privilege of capturing the essence of this impactful gathering. From candid moments of connection and collaboration to the powerful speeches and award presentations, every frame reflected the energy and dedication of these women. I documented not just the event itself, but the spirit of empowerment and collective action that permeated the room from women who came from all around the world to attend.
