The International Network for Women in Cooling (INWIC) participated at Chillventa 8-10 October 2024, in Nuremberg, Germany. This year, INWIC showcased its initiatives at an exhibition booth, highlighting its mission to promote gender equality and support the professional development of women in the cooling sector. INWIC President Colleen Keyworth, supported by representatives of INWIC founding partners present at the exhibition, namely International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR), Air conditioning and Refrigeration European Association (AREA), Union of Associations of African Actors in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning U-3ARC, World Refrigeration Day, and UNEP OzonAction, promoted INWIC and its activities to interested Chillventa visitors.
INWIC’s presence at this year’s Chillventa conference was even more profound for the organization because the previous Chillventa conference in 2022 is where INWIC was announced for the first time. Having a stand at such a large industry event gave the opportunity to introduce the organization to many new people in the industry.
Chillventa is one of the world’s leading exhibitions for refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pump technology, gathering industry experts, innovators, and policymakers from across the globe.
