Girls Who Print Presents: Building Skills, Building Connections
Session Summary:
Girls Who Print (GWP) is a global, nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting women across their careers in print and graphic communications. It is the largest independent network of women in the industry, with a robust membership program and platform that fosters community, mentorship, and professional growth. Through education, events, mentorship, and advocacy, GWP helps women build confidence, expand expertise, and create opportunities across all segments of print, packaging, and communications.
At Labelexpo Europe, Girls Who Print brings that mission to life with a dedicated event hosted by Deborah Corn, Executive Director, and Pat McGrew, Managing Director, designed to inspire skill-building and spark meaningful connections.
The event takes place on 17 September from 4–5 PM at The Pulse, Hall 7, Stand 7B15.
Attendees will hear a short introduction to the GWP mission, followed by a focused presentation on why continuous learning and asking thoughtful questions are essential for the career growth of women. The program concludes with open networking, a welcoming opportunity to meet peers, colleagues, and male allies who share a passion for print and packaging and are most welcome to join this event and GWP membership.
"Having the first official Girls Who Print event at the first Labelexpo in Barcelona is a milestone moment," said Deborah Corn, Executive Director of Girls Who Print. "We want attendees to walk away with practical advice, new connections, and a clear sense of how Girls Who Print can support them and the industry. Sharing knowledge is how we can all strengthen our place in the world of print."
Attendees are encouraged to bring a beverage and business cards to connect, collaborate, explore career opportunities, and build lasting friendships while getting involved with Girls Who Print. Empower Long and Prosper!
