Join us for the first ‘Women in the Marine Industry International’ networking breakfast and industry panel at METSTRADE
British Marine and Soundings Trade Only have joined forces to present the first global event focused on female professionals working with the recreational marine industry ‘Women in Marine International.’
Taking place at METSTRADE on Wednesday 16 November, the event kicks off with an opportunity to network and light breakfast followed by an industry panel discussion featuring dynamic female leaders from across the globe, which will take a deep dive into opportunities and challenges prevalent to women working within the marine industry.
“Soundings Trade Only is an advocate for diversity including women working in the marine industry. We believe that diversity of backgrounds, ethnicities, genders and ideas will drive innovation and industry growth. We are proud to partner with Metstrade and British Marine to bring the first female-focused international event to Metstrade 2022”, commented Michele Goldsmith, Publisher, Soundings Trade Only and Soundings.
British Marine CEO Lesley Robinson added: “British Marine is proud be partnering with Sounding Trade Only to bring Women in Marine to the international stage. We hope that by holding more events like this we can work together to ensure that the marine industry is more inclusive and diverse, ensuring that a person’s sex, age, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, or religion is not a barrier to working in the sector.
“Women in Marine has been a hugely popular and important part of the Southampton International Boat Show agenda over the years, and we hope that this will be the first of many future events here at METSTRADE.”
Doors open at 0845, with breakfast served promptly at 0900 followed by panel discussion, Q&A and networking opportunities until 1030.
