…and meet General Motors (GM) CEO Mary Barra, IBM (IBM) chief Ginni Rometty, author Anne-Marie Slaughter and 400 other women leaders in business and other fields. Also in the mix: Warren Buffett. The Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA) CEO attends the Coins2Day Most Powerful Women Summit each year. This year, as usual, Buffett will share his outlook on business and the economy—and you can watch it live. Watch our livestream on Coins2Day.com, beginning on Monday October 12, 2015.

While the annual MPW Summit, now in its 17th year, is an invitation-only gathering of the world’s most influential women, it is open to the public online. Coins2Day will live-stream all of the main-stage sessions, starting Monday evening—featuring interviews with Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and Yahoo (YHOO) Global News Anchor Katie Couric—through the program’s closing speaker, U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch, at 11 a.m. On Wednesday, October 14.

The Summit’s gala Tuesday evening program features First Lady Michelle Obama plus a conversation with Xerox CEO Ursula Burns and U.S. Chief Technology Officer Megan Smith about jobs in STEM and what it takes to build successful careers.
