Breaking Barriers: Mitsubishi Electric to host 2026 Women in HVAC&R event

Since launching the first “Women in HVAC&R” event in 2022 with its Diamond Quality Partner, Tech Refrigeration, Mitsubishi Electric has been committed to creating a meaningful platform for women in a traditionally male-dominated industry. What began as an industry-first initiative has grown into a space where women from every corner of HVAC&R, from consulting engineering and design to operations, sales and order processing, can connect, learn and support one another.

The purpose has always been clear: To foster a genuine sense of belonging, encourage women to remain and thrive within the sector, and inspire the next generation to pursue career paths they may not have previously felt confident exploring.

That mission continues on 06 March 2026, when Mitsubishi Electric Ireland, in partnership with CIBSE Ireland and WIBSE, hosts this year’s event, ‘Breaking Barriers: Engineering the Next Generation of Leaders’, at its Dublin 22 offices.

The programme promises a potent mix of goal-setting and visualisation workshops, insights into upcoming Mitsubishi Electric innovations, and first-hand stories from women who have challenged norms and shattered ceilings across the industry.
