Our calendar of events is now live! We’re be hosting networking events in all corners of the UK, from Edinburgh to Bristol we’ve announced 10 dates - be there or be square!
The results are in!
At NOWIE, we’re committed to understanding the unique challenges that women face in the events industry. As part of this mission, we conducted a research piece to explore issues such as gender discrimination, sexual harassment and family planning.
We had over 600 responses.
The insights we gathered will help us shape a more inclusive, supportive, and equitable industry for all women.

“The full-time freelancer world is now looking more achievable for 2025 which is something I didn't think would be possible for me at this stage in my career. Thank you again for all your help!”
