Description:
Women+ in Geospatial welcomes everyone to a breakfast session to meet fellow conference attendees as well as the people who lead Women+ in Geospatial. In smaller group conversations, we can exchange advice on how to make the most out of a conference like LPS as well as share each other’s career journeys. Is there a better way to start a conference day? All career stages and gender backgrounds are welcome!
