The 2025 WIRe theme is Show Up! Particularly in a volatile, hybrid world, it’s more important than ever to show up for yourself, for others, and for your community.
Join us on Wednesday, 3rd December evening at the beautifully creative Netflix offices for an evening dedicated to helping you bring your best self to work and to every challenge.
We’ll hear from three fantastic speakers, exploring:
✨ Confidence: Lisa Sheerin will speak to building your self-belief and presence
💪 Negotiating power: Dan Hughes will talk about understanding your power and communicating it effectively to move with momentum
🪞 Introspection: Rashmi van de Leonhorst will lead us in exercises focused on knowing yourself so you can show up as your best self every day
We’re so excited to also have Laura Halliday, cultural expert and producer of the number 1 Marketing podcast, The Persuasion Game, lead a lively discussion around these topics, so come with all your questions!
You spoke, and we listened: this year, we’re leaving more time for conversation and connection, so come ready to bond, grow, and share with an inspiring community of women in research.
🎟️ The event is completely free, thanks to our wonderful 2025 sponsors Potentia and our brilliant hosts, Netflix.
Let’s come together to Show Up! For ourselves and each other. We can’t wait to see you there!
