SHENZHEN, China, May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TCL, a leading global technology company, announced its inclusion in Forbes' 2025 list of the World's Top Companies for Women, recognizing its success in building an inclusive culture and championing women in the workplace.

To compile the list, Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to survey approximately 120,000 women working for multinational corporations in more than 36 countries. Each company's score aggregates survey responses with a "public opinion score" that quantifies women's gender perceptions of different companies, as well as data on women in executive and board positions. The list ranks 400 corporations with a significant global presence across at least two continents.
In addition to career advancement, TCL offers family-friendly benefits such as mother and baby rooms, extended paid maternity leave and childbirth allowances, along with women's healthcare services including cancer screening and psychological counseling.
"Women's empowerment is a core component of TCL's globalization and sustainability strategy, linking our technological innovation with social development," said Wei Xue, Vice President & Chief of the ESG Office at TCL Technology Group Corporation, and Chairperson of TCL Charity Foundation. "Our inclusion on Forbes' list is a tribute to TCL's long-term commitment to empowering women in the workplace and supporting their career development. We are honored to be included and proud of our track record creating opportunity for all people."
TCL operates in more than 160 countries and regions, engaging with local communities and respecting local cultural norms to empower women in the workplace. The company maintains its commitment to diversity and inclusion by assessing Environmental, Social and Governance indicators in its global subsidiaries and using this data to inform its employment policies.
TCL Extends Female Empowerment Mission Beyond the Workplace
Since 2018, TCL has partnered with FIBA, the world's governing body for basketball, to promote female participation in the sport. The company has supported numerous global events and will continue its involvement with the upcoming FIBA Women's World Cup in Germany in September and the 2027 FIBA World Cup in Qatar.
Through the Huameng Foundation, a philanthropic initiative established by TCL's founders, the company funds female-focused programs that have enabled nearly 1,000 young women from underprivileged families to complete high school and tertiary studies. The Foundation uses technology to advance its charitable causes, supporting community development in China and elsewhere.
In addition, TCL's dynamic and long-running #TCLforHer campaign leverages technology, sports and education to empower young women and nurture their ambitions through a variety of community initiatives. The campaign shares stories of trailblazers who challenge assumptions and tear down boundaries, inspiring women everywhere to boldly defy stereotypes and fulfill their potential.
#TCLforHer has received numerous international marketing honors for its storytelling prowess. In January 2025, it won a prestigious Silver Telly Award—a major prize in the global documentary and TV brand film sector—for its 2024 marketing campaign, which centers around two brand films produced by a predominantly female team.
TCL's inclusion on the Forbes list of the World's Top Companies for Women marks an important milestone, affirming the company's leadership in female empowerment and commitment to breaking the glass ceiling for women worldwide.

Bayern stellt seine Heimatpolitik auf ein neues Fundament: Mit der weiterentwickelten „Heimatstrategie 2033“ will der Freistaat seine regionalen Strukturen stärken, gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt sichern und dabei vor allem den bayerisch-tschechischen Grenzraum stärker in den Blick nehmen. Finanz- und Heimatminister Albert Füracker (CSU) sieht darin eine Fortschreibung der 2014 gestarteten Heimatstrategie, die nun angesichts neuer Herausforderungen angepasst und ausgebaut werden soll. In Nürnberg präsentierte er dazu ein umfangreiches Maßnahmenpaket, das sowohl Kommunen als auch engagierte Bürgerinnen und Bürger gezielt einbinden soll.
Füracker verweist darauf, dass sich in der Grenzregion zu Tschechien bereits viel getan habe, aber weiterhin erhebliches Potenzial schlummere. Dieses wolle man „gemeinsam mit den Menschen“ besser nutzen. Bayerns Erfolgsmodell beruhe auf wirtschaftlicher Leistungsfähigkeit, Innovationskraft und starken Regionen, aber ebenso auf sozialem Zusammenhalt, gelebten Traditionen und einem starken Ehrenamt, so der Minister. Ziel sei es, das besondere Lebensgefühl im Freistaat – in Stadt und Land – langfristig zu sichern und zugleich die Widerstandskraft der Regionen zu erhöhen.
Einen Schwerpunkt der „Heimatstrategie 2033“ legt die Staatsregierung auf Personen, die sich vor Ort in besonderer Weise engagieren. Bereits im Juni ist das Forschungsvorhaben „Heimat-Kümmerer“ gemeinsam mit der Technischen Hochschule Nürnberg angelaufen. Es soll Schlüsselpersonen identifizieren, unterstützen und vernetzen, die ihre Heimat aktiv mitgestalten. Ergänzend ist für den Herbst 2026 eine Bürgerumfrage zum Thema „Werte“ vorgesehen sowie ein „Heimat-Newsletter“, über den Informationen gebündelt und der Austausch mit der Bevölkerung ausgebaut werden sollen.
Parallel dazu sollen die Kommunen finanziell und strukturell gestärkt werden, da sie nach Fürackers Worten der zentrale Ort des Lebens und Zusammenhalts sind. Die bisherige Bilanz der seit 2014 laufenden Strategie – darunter Behördenverlagerungen, Investitionen in den Breitbandausbau oder Initiativen wie ein Dialektpreis – wertet der Minister als Beleg dafür, dass Heimatpolitik konkrete Auswirkungen auf Infrastruktur und Identität haben kann. Mit der Fortschreibung bis 2033 will die Staatsregierung diese Linie fortsetzen, bewährte Maßnahmen weiterführen und neue Initiativen starten, um Bayern als attraktiven und zukunftsfähigen Lebensraum zu positionieren.
