Events

Our events are all about providing women in our sector an opportunity to connect with each other and learn new skills, in a relaxed and fun environment.

What makes the Franklin Women community unique is the way we bring together women working in diverse roles, organisations and disciplines from across the health and medical research ecosystem. Through these connections, wonderful things happen – from new job opportunities to innovative collaborations and, importantly, new friendships and support networks.

At Franklin Women events, we not only foster these relationships but also connect you with experts in important career skills outside of the technical sciences that we wouldn’t otherwise have access to. Our events include face-to-face and virtual formats and cover everything from having courageous conversations and navigating career transitions to hearing from inspiring women from across our sector – you can enjoy photos from some of our previous events below.

We would love to meet you at one of our upcoming events – scroll down to check them out!
