WMN as a National Platform

The Women’s Manufacturing Network is more than a community—it’s a growing platform designed to elevate women and companies across the manufacturing industry.

​

Built by volunteers and powered by purpose, WMN connects professionals, shares real stories, and creates new opportunities through visibility.

​

From content to connection, from recognition to reach—we’re building a national movement that’s reshaping how women are seen in manufacturing.

Help Us Bring Visibility to Women in Manufacturing

The Women’s Manufacturing Network is building something meaningful—something the industry has needed for a long time:

​

A platform focused on visibility.

​

  • Visibility for the women who lead, build, design, manage, and power the manufacturing industry every day.

  • Visibility for the companies that support them.

  • And visibility for the career paths that deserve to be seen.

Why This Matters

Manufacturing is filled with smart, skilled, hardworking women—but too often, their contributions go unnoticed.

WMN exists to change that.

​

Through a growing network of volunteer-led content series, we shine a light on the people, companies, and stories that make this industry strong.


We celebrate real careers, real leadership, and real impact—at every level. This isn’t just content. It’s visibility. And visibility creates opportunity.

What Volunteers Do

WMN content leads take ownership of a spotlight series that highlights women in manufacturing—by region, role, company, or career stage.

​

You’ll get to:

​

  • Share stories that deserve to be seen

  • Build authentic connections with people across the industry

  • Expand your own network and professional presence

  • Make a meaningful impact—without changing your day job to do it

 

You don’t need a writing background. Just a willingness to feature others and a few hours a month to support a mission that lifts everyone up.

Who This is For

This is a great fit for:

​

  • Professionals in manufacturing who want to grow their presence

  • Leaders who believe in lifting others as they climb

  • Advocates for diversity and visibility

  • Anyone passionate about amplifying the work of women in industry
