This is the only awards program of its kind to encompass mining, manufacturing and engineering. The 2014 Women in Industry Awards aims to recognise and reward the achievements of women working in the industrial sectors (in Australia).

The program aims to recognise women who are leading change in their chosen field and breaking down the barriers in what can often be male-dominated industries.

Prizes and winners will be unveiled on Wednesday the 25th of June at the awards dinner.
