Soundings Trade Only announced it will host three special events in the next three weeks focused on women in the boating industry, new products entering the marine market, and intentional leadership, corporate culture and empowering the workforce.

Following the success of the June Women in the Industry event, tomorrow’s iteration of Women in the Industry Facebook Live event runs from 9 a.m.-9:30 a.m. ET and will feature guest speaker Alicia M. Rodriguez.

The event — sponsored by Sea-Tow, Mercury, MarineMax and Volvo Penta is “an opportunity for women to connect, learn and engage,” said Soundings Trade Only publisher Michele Goldsmith.
