NEWIEE Programming

NEWIEE’s programming is the primary means through which we work toward our goal of diversifying the energy and environment sectors. By providing opportunities for professional development and community building, and intentionally highlighting speakers who represent wide-ranging underrepresented voices in energy and environment, we actively support our members’ career entry and advancement to achieve that goal.

Signature Events

• Annual “Membership” Meeting & Fall Fête (Fall)
  Annual Members Meeting followed by networking reception with a vibrant community of women professionals.
• Women Shaping the Agenda Series (Summer)
  Panel discussion among leaders in the industry, featuring engaging dialog and debate on industry and policy topics across New England. Visit our blog for the full list of previous WSTA speakers.
• NEWIEE Gala (Spring)
  An inspiring annual celebration featuring recognition of woman leaders in the fields of energy and the environment. Visit our blog for the full list of previous NEWIEE Award Recipients.
