L’Oréal Paris will sponsor an event honoring inspiring women that’s being hosted by CNN Ad Sales.

The CNN Inspire Summit will be held Oct. 10 in New York. The summit will feature women of achievement in fields including politics, the environment and social efforts, and the women they find inspiring.

CNN anchor Paula Zahn will make opening remarks and a panel discussion will be led by Zain Verjee, CNN international correspondent.

“This event brings together some truly remarkable individuals to discuss serious issues facing women and the world as a whole,” said Greg D’Alba, chief operating officer of CNN Ad Sales and Marketing. “We are proud to have L’Oréal Paris joining us for this exceptional evening of education, interaction and dialogue.”

Plans for televising or webcasting parts of the event had not been finalized Friday.
