Women in Print expands to Canberra

Women in Print has announced the expansion of its annual Breakfast Series to Canberra.

The series takes place across Australia in 7 capital cities, starting on 30 April and concluding on 8 May. Canberra is scheduled for 7 May, running at the same time as the Sydney event.

The expansion into Canberra marks a significant milestone for Women in Print, reflecting the organisation’s commitment to inclusivity and nationwide support for women professionals in the print and the broader visual media industry.

With a team of volunteers from Instant Colour Press in Belconnen, ACT, Women in Print Chair Stephanie Gaddin will open the Canberra event, which will then live-stream the Keynote from Sydney. Following the breakfast, Gaddin and Victorian Patron Rita Karagiannis will assist the Canberra volunteers in forming an ACT committee and receive the formal application for an ACT Patron.

“I am privileged to support all women in our industry and drive the expansion of Women in Print in Canberra,” remarked Stephanie Gaddin, Chair of Women in Print, and Editor of Digital Image Magazine. “We look forward to meeting Canberran talent at the breakfast next month. I am excited to work alongside our community to foster personal and career growth and inclusivity across multiple spheres.”

The Women in Print Breakfast Series continues to be a not-for-profit initiative supported by generous sponsors and partners who share the organisation’s vision of empowering women in the print sector. Cactus Imaging has confirmed the continuation of its sponsorship, taking up a Women in Print Ally Sponsorship.

“As Women in Print expands its footprint to encompass Canberra, I am deeply appreciative of the enduring support from our industry allies. The collaborative efforts of our partners contribute significantly to the advancement of women in the sector. We extend a warm invitation to all in the broader community to join us at the Breakfast Series, where together, we can forge stronger connections, share insights, and champion inclusivity within our industry,” commented Gaddin.

At the 2024 Breakfast, keynote speaker Christina Bruce, Founder and CEO of Sellabilities, will lead participants through self-exploration of their thinking; they will then create their model for that new thinking that enables new possibilities and results.

Tickets for the series are selling fast across the country and can be purchased at https://bit.ly/WiPBrekkie24, including Canberra.

Sponsorship opportunities for the 2024 series are still available, with sponsorship closing at the end of April.
