Event Details

A Room Full of Women Who Get It

There's something different about being in a room full of women who understand exactly what you do. FORGE is that room.

Bringing together women from across the metal construction industry, FORGE is built around real conversation, genuine connection, and the kind of leadership insight you only get from people who've walked a similar path.

You'll leave with new connections, fresh perspective, and relationships that extend well beyond the event. FORGE welcomes women at every stage — from emerging professionals to industry veterans — because everyone in the room has something to offer and something to gain.

Join us on October 6 in Orlando, the day before METALCON opens, from 1:00 to 5:00 PM — followed by a reception, sponsored by National Women in Roofing, to continue the conversation.

Space is limited and is on a first-come, first-served basis. Secure your spot today!
