WE EMPOWER WOMEN

We empower women in the exhibition industry whilst helping to nurture the next generation of female leaders.

Women in Exhibitions 

Women makeup the majority of the UK's event and exhibitions workforce – estimated a around 80 per cent in entry level positions. Yet, women hold approximately just 20 per cent of board positions.

The UK chapter of Women in Exhibitions aims to promote fairness, equity, and diversity in the industry by preparing women for leadership roles through upskilling, networking, mentoring and support.

By increasing gender diversity in leadership, research tells us that the sector will benefit from a more diverse pool of perspectives, skills, and experiences – this will be better for society, our audiences and for business.
