Another top woman at the International Construction Superconference

The impressive line-up of women speakers taking part in the 4th International Construction Superconference in London in May 2006 had a further boost this week with the announcement that Ambassador Donna Hrinak of Steel Hector Davis is joining the panel for the innovative business session The Changing Face of International Construction. Ambassador Hrinak brings many years of diplomatic experience in the Americas, including Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, and a particular knowledge of government relations, contracts and procurement.

Ambassador Hrinak will join Nadia Riffat, Head of Planning at the Municipality of Tripoli, Birgitte Brinch Madsen, who is Director of the Danish firm COWIconsult’s new energy division in China and Faith Wainwright, director of Arup in London.

Business session chair Sandi Rhys Jones of ICONdirect says, "I am delighted to have the opportunity of bringing together such a powerful group of women to debate the challenges and risks of the global market place in construction and development. It promises to be a fascinating business session."

Particular thanks go to conference sponsors Women in Business International.
