Book nowOverview
Fellowship is the highest grade of membership offered by ICE and is a professional accolade highly respected around the world, yet only six percent of current ICE Fellows are women; a statistic that the ICE aims to increase.
ICE Connects has set itself ambitious targets to increase FICE applications from women in the profession, and since forming in 2023, has seen a 50% increase on 2022 figures.
This online event, delivered by ICE Australasia, reflects on the hybrid event held in 13 locations across the UK, South Africa, Dubai, the Americas and India, as well as online, to allow women and industry allies to unite and explore the importance of diversity across Fellowship.
Hosted by ICE Australasia, a high-profile panel will broadcast online to attendees includes Claire Moore FICE, Melinda Lutton FICE, Ruby Chan FICE, Simonne Eldridge FICE and Marie Gales FICE.
This event is open to all, primarily those considering ICE Fellowship and current Fellows interested in becoming more involved in the process through mentoring or sponsoring an applicant.
