The forum is completely free, and attendees will have the opportunity to network with inspirational women and potential employers over a buffet lunch. The Forum begins at 12.15pm so arrive early at the Presentation Theatre to ensure your place.
“The Women in Engineering Forum at NECR was a great opportunity to meet other female engineers from other businesses on a relaxed level. It was particularly interesting to see and hear common experiences across a wide range of disciplines and ages. I really enjoyed the experience and would encourage female engineers to attend these events in the future.”
Dr Helen Meese, Electro-Mechanical Power Engineer, Alstec
“As a networker at the Women in Engineering Forum I found it to be an excellent opportunity for us to meet with female engineers in an informal way, allowing delegates to open up and discuss any issues they may have. It was a fantastic way for us to pass on our message and raise awareness of the Mitsubishi brand to potential candidates.”
Daniela Horder, Mitsubishi Electric B.V. Project Engineering Division
