About the Conference

Women at the centre of South Africa’s energy, engineering and infrastructure future

This conference is built around the visual and strategic direction of the brochure: women in hard hats, women leading infrastructure conversations, women working with energy systems, and women shaping the just transition economy.

Women leading from the project office to the project site.

Leadership, projects and opportunity

The energy transition is not only about technology. It is also about who leads projects, who accesses opportunity, who builds infrastructure, who manages delivery and who benefits from new value chains.

The conference creates a serious platform for women professionals, project leaders, engineers, infrastructure specialists, utilities, IPPs, EPCs, municipalities, SOEs, investors, universities and emerging professionals.

The visual identity uses the brochure’s strongest picture ideas: women in energy leadership, solar and wind infrastructure, transmission lines, rail and logistics, project delivery and the African infrastructure opportunity.
