For the third year due to popular demand, Equip Exposition will offer the Women’s Leadership Reception, which organisers say is designed to help women leaders in the green industry connect and build their professional networks.

Equip will be held this year from October 21st to 24th at the Kentucky Exposition Center (KEC), and the reception will be held Thursday, October 23rd, from 5:00pm to 6:00pm at the KEC, and be preceded by a special panel discussion on women in the green industry.

“Women are an important part of our almost 30,000 attendees and exhibitors who come to Equip, and we’re proud to offer the Women’s Reception and other networking opportunities to bring women leaders in the green industry together,” says Kris Kiser, President & CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), which owns the trade show.
