WiLL Panel Discussion

How We Began

On December 23, 2016, a group of Lottery industry women executives received a call to action: to become a part of an initiative aimed at encouraging the development of women in leadership in the industry. The call came from Rebecca Paul, and her colleagues of Lottery CEOs and top executives. The leadership of WiLL is deeply invested in the global Lottery business, possessing a passion for supporting strategic initiatives to sustain and modernize it. As dedicated supporters of women in the industry, the Will leadership has mentored many of us across the world as we strive to fulfill challenging Lottery leadership positions.
