Sixth edition of Women in Construction Summit to take place on 31 October
The one-day event will tackle several key issues and will feature high profile speakers from across the built environment in the Middle East
The 2023 Women in Construction Summit ED&I (WIC Summit) will focus on several key themes, and will take place on 31 October at the Habtoor Grand Resort JBR in Dubai.
According to the Middle East Consultant (MEC) editorial team, the key focuses for the 2023 edition are: overcoming engrained prejudice and proactively solving the gender gap in the built environment. It will also shine a light on the topic of multi-cultural teams, and how construction firms can build diverse organisations to reap significant productivity benefits.
The day-long event will feature several panel discussions and presentations, and will feature well respected personalities from across the built environment. Registration is complementary but mandatory for built environment professionals across the Middle East.
“ED&I: Women in Construction has become a rapidly-evolving event that sets out to be a real and powerful force in lobbying for practical and ethical change. This year, the event focuses heavily on key issues such as fair and equal remuneration across ethnicities – and will present cogent arguments from some of the region’s most innovative and largest employers,” says Paul Godfrey, Head of Content at Middle East Consultant.
He continues, “As always, discussions will be accompanied by strong, real-world case studies and strategic solutions that are proven to work in the world’s most challenging economies and contexts.”
