Forbes Releases Annual Global 50 Over 50 List, Celebrating Women Defying Age And Gender Barriers

MIKY LEE BY MARK SELIGER/AUGUST

NEW YORK, NY – January 21, 2026 – Today, Forbes has unveiled its 2026 Global 50 Over 50 list in partnership with Know Your Value and its founder Mika Brzezinski, co-host of MS NOW’s Morning Joe. Now in its sixth year, the franchise recognizes 50 women who are not only accomplished leaders, but who are making their most significant professional impact after the age of 50 around the world.

The women on the 2026 50 Over 50 Global list hail from 36 countries and territories across six continents, reflecting the truly international scope of influence women are wielding later in their careers. Collectively, they are leaving their marks on every sector of the global economy—from aviation and architecture to finance, fashion, food, mining, technology and public service. Several have broken barriers to become “the first” in their roles; others have built or reinvented businesses, invented technologies and medical therapies, or led cultural and societal change that stands to affect millions of lives. All exemplify resilience and reinvention in an ever-changing global environment.

This year’s list includes globally recognized figures such as Penélope Cruz, the Oscar-winning Spanish actor whose career has spanned four decades; Charlotte Tilbury, founder of Charlotte Tilbury Beauty and one of the most influential entrepreneurs in global cosmetics; and Gisèle Pelicot, whose decision to publicly confront violence against women helped catalyze national debate and legal reform in France.

Alongside these household names, this year’s list features powerful women whose leadership and initiatives are driving meaningful change across society, including the Prime Ministers of Japan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo Sanae Takaichi and Judith Suminwa, Ladidi Kuluwa Bako-Aiyegbusi, Director-Head, Nutrition Department, Nigeria Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare and Cheryl Pearce, Major General, Deputy Military Adviser for Peacekeeping Operations, UN.

“The 2026 50 Over 50 list reflects the extraordinary breadth of influence women are having around the world,” says Maggie McGrath, Editor, ForbesWomen. “Where they differ in sector focus and geographic origin, what unites the women on this list is a willingness to apply their well-earned wisdom and experience to some of the most complex challenges of our time. What unites them is not a single sector or geography, but a willingness to apply decades of experience to some of the most complex challenges of our time — proving that impact, leadership and innovation can only deepen with age.”

Produced in partnership with Mika Brzezinski’s Know Your Value, Brzezinski will share more on this year’s 50 Over 50 list Thursday morning during Morning Joe on MS NOW.

In 2026, Forbes and Know Your Value will host the fifth annual 30/50 Summit in Abu Dhabi coinciding with International Women’s Day, featuring the women from the Forbes 50 Over 50 and 30 Under 30 lists. The immersive event, led by Mika Brzezinski, Huma Abedin and Maggie McGrath, will bring together female leaders from both communities for the opportunity to forge cross-generational alliances and share guidance and insights to women at every stage of their career, while also offering a programme of rich cultural exchange.

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…
