The summit builds on Trump's stated commitment to women's empowerment. While she spoke passionately on the topic on the campaign trail and at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland last July, she has not yet defined a platform or spoken publicly on the topic since her father took office more than two months ago.

This year's summit, the third of its kind, will focus on labor market participation, access to finance for women entrepreneurs, and closing the digital gender divide, according to its website . German Chancellor Angela Merkel will participate in a panel on the final day of the summit.
