SUMMARY:International Women in Engineering Day Breakfast
DESCRIPTION:Join QMCA\, NAWIC Qld and DT Infrastructure as we celebrate International Women in Engineering Day. \nInternational Women in Engineering Day began in the UK in 2014 as a National campaign by the Women’s Engineering Society. Since then\, INWED has grown enormously\, receiving UNESCO patronage in 2016 and going truly global the following year. The day highlights the amazing work of women in engineering and technical roles across our industry. \nAs an industry\, we have undoubtedly come a long way\, with QMCA and member companies supporting and driving positive change. However\, more can still be done to increase female participation\, promote careers and pathways in engineering\, and ensure that we can attract and retain the best talent in infrastructure and engineering. \nAt our International Women in Engineering Day breakfast\, join QMCA and keynote female leaders from across the industry as we celebrate women’s achievements in infrastructure and address the challenges and barriers that prevent greater female participation. \nJoin us for a unique event. Book your place – grab a table\, get involved in this event\, and celebrate the fantastic women in the construction industry. This event will sell out\, so secure your tickets early to avoid missing out. \nKeynote Speaker – Josephine Sukkar AM \n \nJosephine is co-owner and Principal of Buildcorp\, founded in 1990 with her husband Tony. \nShe is a professional company director and serves on a number of private\, public and not-for-profit boards\, including Sout Patts\, Growthpoint Properties Australia\, the Green Building Council of Australia\, the Australian Museum and the Buildcorp Foundation. \nJosephine served as Chair of Australian Women’s Rugby Union\, was a member of the Nominations Committee of Rugby Australia and the Australian Rugby Foundation and\, through Buildcorp\, has financially supported the rugby community for over 30 years. In her role as President of Australian Women’s Rugby between 2015 and 2023\, Josephine was a strong advocate in increasing female participation and opportunity throughout the pipeline. \nJosephine is a Fellow of the University of Sydney\, and in 2017 she was recognised for her services to the community\, the arts and sports with a Medal of the Order of Australia in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list. \nPanelists \nJess Caire\, QLD Executive Director\, Property Council\, Madison Scott\, Sustainability Coordinator\, Fulton Hogan and winner of QMCA Emerging Professional of the Year Award and Madelyn Trappett\, DT Infrastructure. \nEvent Partner – DT Infrastructure \n \nDT Infrastructure is a leading provider of complex infrastructure solutions to clients in the transport\, defence\, and energy sectors. As part of the Gamuda group of companies\, DT Infrastructure offers a unique synergy of local expertise and relationships and the support of global infrastructure and property multi-national\, Gamuda Berhad. Our focus on collaborative contracting\, leading sustainability practices and efficient engineering results in the successful delivery of projects for clients\, communities\, and stakeholders.
