Meghan Markle is among the list of high profile women speaking at this evening’s Fortune's Most Powerful Women virtual summit.

The event, held in a digital format, will see Meghan take the floor for a 15 minute one-on-one conversation.

This is one of many virtual appearances the Duchess of Sussex has made since she and Prince Harry moved to Los Angeles, including a graduation address for students at her old Los Angeles high school where she addressed the Black Lives Matter protests.

At the summit, Meghan reportedly plans to focus on the subject of rebuilding the digital world and creating humane tech.

According to a tweet by royal reporter Omid Scobie, who co-wrote the Meghan and Harry biography Findind Freedom, humane tech is set to be a central branch of Meghan and Harry's yet to be launched charitable foundation Archewell.

In March of this year, the couple announced their Archewell foundation, replacing the Sussex Royal umbrella they operated under as senior royals.

While the foundation is yet to be launch, the couple reportedly plans to create a wide-ranging website that includes sharing "education and training materials" via films, podcasts and books.

"Before SussexRoyal, came the idea of Arche - the Greek word meaning source of action” the couple wrote in a statement earlier this year.

"We connected to this concept for the charitable organization we hoped to build one day, and it became the inspiration for our son's name. To do something of meaning, to do something that matters.”
