Urbano UWACTE Community Launch and Networking Evening

This year, Urbano Network celebrates its seventh year connecting hundreds of companies and individuals across our business communities: Build, Finance, Media, People and Tech.  

As part of our celebrations, we are hosting an evening event on Wednesday June 27th - timed for London Festival of Architecture (LFA) - where we will officially launch our new Urbano Community UWACTE (Urbano Women In Architecture Construction Technology & Engineering).

Since our first events in the summer of 2011, around 50% of an Urbano Build event audience have been female, many running their own companies or with senior positions at larger companies. And in 2018 to date, all our speakers have so far have been women.

UWACTE, our new Urbano Community, will sit along the established Build Community and allow us to foster deeper connections between women across the relevant sectors and specialisms, with female entrepreneurs, those in positions at SMEs and especially with those within our larger members and corporates.

Urbano sees events as catalysts to quality connections and all our events are open to not only women and men, but also from any sector and stage of business. This mix tends to make our events lively and genuinely engaging.

Urbano has always been passionate about encouraging diversity, with a genuine and provable commitment to being open to everyone, regardless of status, size, sector, sexuality, race or gender. We have also worked tirelessly to connect companies of different sizes and individuals with different roles and responsibilities across across all sectors.

This event is supported by Elliott Wood a design-led structural and civil engineering practice and a Patron of the London Festival of Architecture this year. As an Urbano Member Company, we are delighted to have their support for our UWACTE launch event demonstrating their committment to women in engineering.

Our evening event is hosted by Bakers Hall - The City of London’s second oldest guild - with delicious canapes supplied by Berkeley Catering, London's leading corporate and events caterers, and Urbano providing wine to help celebrate this new Urbano Community.
