Winter Social and AGM

Mingle with new and old friends over drinks and food, and commemorate another wonderful year for WCE. 

The evening will begin with our Annual General Meeting (AGM) to reflect on this past year's success, followed by awarding our scholarship winners, before we mingle the night away.

WCE experienced another year of growth and accomplishment in 2024. Throughout this year, we delved into how to navigate microaggressions in our industry, heard from inspiring women on their path to executive leadership, and explored how to lead from our values. We also brushed up on our self-defense, conflict resolution, and networking skills! We met new people through our informal Wednesday meet-ups, and benefited from two wonderful mentorship events. 

Beyond these significant milestones, we supported our community through collaborations with Impact North Shore, Girl Guides, and Girls in STEAM. 

Let’s come together to celebrate the community we have built and create more memories!

Thank you to our generous sponsors for the evening, WSP and Glotman Simpson Consulting Engineers, for making this event possible!
