Women in STEM Summit 2023

PUNCH Consulting Engineers was delighted to be represented at the recent Women in STEM Summit 2023 by 5 of our female STEM professionals Catherine, Ralmar, Méabh, Sowmiya and Vivienne.
 
The Summit brought together thought leaders, educators, policy makers, innovators and pioneers to investigate and further the opportunities for women in STEM. It also sought to acknowledge and address the remaining challenges in creating professional environments that are fully inclusive of women.
 
The importance of systemic policy and workplace change was noted, as well as the importance of role modelling to the younger generations, both female and male, as to what a career in STEM looks like.
 
PUNCH is fully committed to promoting careers in STEM for all.
At PUNCH, we understand the value of education. That’s why we support our staff who wish to undertake further education and training.
