PWAPM Networking Breakfast
The 2021 PWAPM Networking Breakfast sponsored by Ecolab will host a variety of speakers and panels from women who have advanced in the pest management industry at The Star, Gold Coast – AEPMA (Pesticon) Conference on the 23rd of September. Breakfast guests will present on industry trends, business learnings and opportunities. This event aims to connect and foster constructive conversation between women in the pest management industry.
This will be an opportunity to be in a room with like-minded people and meeting experts and leaders face to face. This is an opportunity for women to meet some of their business influences, having the opportunity to be in the same room as them and listen to how they approach business.
This breakfast is open to delegates and non delegates of the AEPMA (Pesticon) Conference. You do not need to be attending the conference to attend. If you work on or around the Gold Coast, we would love for you to attend.
Please note that this is a FREE event but you must register to attend. Limited numbers apply.
