five breakfast events to hear guest speaker, Sally Cockburn aka Dr. Feelgood, talk about women’s health, and to share her secrets on juggling work and personal responsibilities. Since Women in Print began, more than 2500 women have participated and each year new guests join those who are regulars, further expanding the reach of the events and the networking opportunities.
Women in Print is an initiative of Heidelberg Graphic Equipment, supported by State Patrons: NSW Karen Goldsmith – GAMAA, VIC Jenny Berry – PIAA, QLD Susan Heaney – Heaneys, SA Jen Baile – FujiXerox, WA Olivia Grida – Advance Press. It has now evolved to become a truly collaborative exercise with the industry’s two premier associations – GAMAA and Printing Industries Association of Australia – working closely with Heidelberg to ensure the concept stays fresh and relevant and that keynote speakers are of the highest calibre.
“Women in Print is a not-for-profit event, and it can only operate if we have the support of the industry,” says Deb Holst, Women in Print Patron for Heidelberg. “Corporate sponsorship enables us to engage a top level speaker and to facilitate the five breakfast events we hold annually.”
“Sponsoring Women in Print is a great opportunity to show your support for the industry and we look forward to welcoming new sponsors for our 2015 program,” she concludes.
