WoodSolutions are thrilled to announce the inaugural meeting of the WoodSolutions Young Professional Network, to be held at the iconic 41X on the third Thursday of each month. Come and join your peers in this Industry first initiative, which will host regular events centred around hot topics to do with timber construction. These monthly meetups will not only provide attendees with the opportunity to upskill, but will also provide a chance to meet peers with similar interests, forming a support network for the future of your career.
With the first meet up scheduled for the evening of Thursday the 16th of August, this ongoing event is open to all young professionals under 35 years old who are currently employed in the property/design/construction industry. All events are to be informal in nature, and have been designed to promote discussion and connection between the attendees. Event sizing will be strictly capped due to venue constraints, so it’s important to get in quick if you are keen to be part of this exciting new initiative. Drinks and food will be provided.
This month’s presentation topics will include an introduction to engineered wood products and an updated on some of the most exciting engineered timber projects currently planned or under construction around the world. Future topics will be presented by experts from within the industry, and will include (but aren’t limited to): sustainability, costing, fire, durability, acoustics, structural design, and more.
If you are unable to attend this opening event but would like to stay updated for future happening with the network you can join our Facebook group, which functions as a forum and news source for new developments in timber construction, or alternatively get in touch at Laurence.ritchie@woodsolutions.com.au to simply join our mailing list.
