Auscham contribution

In recent years working with AUSCHAM, we created the Gender Committee, which I chaired from 2019 to date and we managed to give it interesting visibility, through various events and instances of participation for our member companies. In this first stage, we mainly develop awareness-raising events on the topic.

Without prejudice to this, I would love to be able to participate in the Board of Directors, so that I can contribute at a macro level, in the instances and events that we organize in the future. I think I can bring enthusiasm, a fresh look and support to the chamber in organizing the things they want to do, as well as help find new opportunities and instances of support for our members. As we become more interesting, we can attract more members and foster the relationship with Australia.
