Highlights from the Session

We heard powerful stories from three brilliant speakers:

Laura Imeson –  on curiosity, studying physics, and early-career growth in safety and risk.

Aaina Cooke – on navigating career transitions, motherhood and building confidence across sectors

Trish Conder – on deep experience, returning from a career break and the value of role models.

The Q&A covered everything from renewable energy projects to career breaks, NDT technology and how we can attract and retain more women in STEM.
