“We are having a global conversation around workplaces, around the role of women and gender equity, in a way that in those three decades, I’ve never seen before,” she said on Friday.

The organization is also starting a new project called the Time’s Up Impact Lab, focused on research and policies about sexual harassment and other forms of workplace discrimination. The lab received a significant contribution from Pivotal Ventures, an incubator founded by Melinda Gates and led by Jennifer Klein, a strategist for Time’s Up.

The organization declined to say exactly how much Pivotal Ventures had donated. In an article in Time, Ms. Gates pledged to donate $1 billion over the next 10 years to expand women’s power and influence in the United States. She wrote that the group would focus on dismantling barriers to women’s professional advancement; fast-tracking women in sectors such as technology, media and politics; and pressuring companies and organizations to change policies.

A short history of Time’s Up

Time’s Up was founded two years ago amid the fallout from revelations about Harvey Weinstein and other powerful Hollywood figures. Actresses, producers, agents and other women began to meet and strategize about a campaign for gender parity and workplace safety. They were prompted to think about women in other industries by an open letter from female farmworkers with the group Alianza Nacional de Campesinas that expressed both sympathy and solidarity.
