Awarded by El Mundo and Actualidad Económica in the Corporate Social Responsibility category, recognizing WIND’s role in advancing female leadership and fostering greater inclusion across the automotive sector
MADRID, Spain, July 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Solera’s Women in Dealerships (WIND) initiative has been recognised by leading Spanish newspaper El Mundo as one of Spain’s “100 Mejores Ideas” in the Corporate Social Responsibility category, recognising its contribution to advancing female leadership across the automotive sector.
Globally, WIND reflects the Solera Foundation’s commitment to building a more inclusive and representative automotive industry. What began as an initiative to increase the visibility of women in automotive has evolved into a global platform that connects, develops and empowers women across the dealership ecosystem through leadership development, mentorship, networking and industry collaboration.
This recognition is especially meaningful because it comes from one of Spain’s most respected media institutions and acknowledges not only the impact of the initiative itself, but also the growing importance of fostering diverse leadership in an industry undergoing profound transformation. As automotive businesses navigate rapid technological change, evolving customer expectations and workforce challenges, creating greater opportunities for women to lead has never been more important.
