QUT WOMEN IN BUSINESS
Empower - Equip - Excite
WHAT WE DO
"If not me,
Who?
If not now,
when?"
Emma Watson
QUT Women in Business (WIB) is a student-run society that provides a platform for young, aspiring individuals to develop skills both personally and professionally.
We strongly believe that both men and women must be actively involved to achieve gender parity.
Launched in March 2016, Women in Business (WIB) now boasts over 500 paying members, 700 Instagram followers and over 2000 Facebook likes. Our exponential growth demonstrates the need for a female-run business club.
We have hosted a number of sold-out community, industry, social and workshop events including our flagship events Suited for Success and the WIB Mentoring Breakfast. WIB was a finalist in the 2018 QUT Guild Awards for Social Media of the Year, Faculty Club of the Year and Secretary of the Year. We also won Networking Event of the Year (Suited For Success), highlighting the strong positive impact QUT WIB has made in the broader QUT community.
WIB members have also gained graduate and job positions, internships, mentorships and skill development opportunities. This is enhanced by our recently introduced competitions division.
In all endeavours, WIB aims to empower, equip and excite women to achieve their goals.
