Women Talk Real Estate is part of Diversity Talks Real Estate, which aims to further diversity and inclusion in the European built environment industry by raising the visibility of under-represented groups. We have a particular focus on women experts and professionals of all genders from minority ethnic backgrounds but we also welcome individuals from other under-represented groups that wish to harness our platform.
Visibility brings opportunities, challenges stereotypes and provides role models. It also helps us to work towards a more diverse and inclusive industry that would best serve the cities and communities in which we work.
Women Talk Real Estate focuses on delivering public speaking training courses and other programmes that offer women professionals an opportunity to practice these skills.
