EFC’S 4th Annual Future Forum: Trends, Applications and Opportunities

EFC Women

One notable trend of the 4th forum was the almost equal number of men and women attending this Electro-Federation Canada event. Our industry changes. Susan Adler, EFC’s Manager, Member Services, who discussed this issue with female members of the EFC, says that women now account for 25% of the industry. They are still often found in traditionally female jobs, but the glass ceiling has cracked and they are being called upon to play a role more important. During the forum, researchers and industry experts presented research, trends and the latest applications that might have an impact in our industry. More to come.
