WIA Summit 2025 dates announced; Networking starts with WIA MeetUp Nov. 12
ORLANDO, Fla., October 31, 2024 – The 14th annual Women in Agribusiness (WIA) Summit will take place on September 22-24, 2025, in a new location – Orlando, Florida, and registration is now open. In conjunction with that, the next WIA MeetUp will be held next month, November 12, in Durham, North Carolina, to get the WIA networking started.
After gathering nearly 1,000 women from throughout the ag value chain from 47 U.S. states and nine countries at its 2024 WIA Summit in Denver last month, the momentum to participate in the 2025 event is in full force. The impending agenda promises key info on the impact of geopolitical situations on ag, weather and climate affects, risk management, crop outlooks and more, along with the popular annual Executive Panel, Ag Innovation Hour and Transforming the Workplace discussion. Additionally, there will be unique off-site networking events, developmental/leadership workshops and intentional networking breakout sessions.
More than 60 sponsors – from ADM to Bunge to Cargill to Nationwide sponsor the event each year, and attendees hail from nearly 250 industry companies.
