Professional Women in Construction New York MWBE Connect Summit returns in May

May 26, 2026 - Construction Design & Engineering

Manhattan, NY The Professional Women in Construction New York (PWC NY) MWBE Connect Summit is returning for 2026.

Building on the massive success of past summits - which have brought together hundreds of industry trailblazers, top-tier agencies, and private CM firms - the 2026 Summit is set to be PWC’s most impactful yet.

Why the hype? Just look at the achievements made together:

Direct Access: Past events featured exclusive meet-and-greets with industry giants like Skanska USA and Structure Tone, turning handshakes into real project opportunities.

Powerhouse Networking: This is consistently sold out because this is where New York’s AEC leaders come to connect, learn, and grow.

Inside Intel: From “Fireside Chats” to panels on the future of infrastructure, we provide the blueprint for navigating today’s complex construction climate.
