WinePRO Announce Panel For Women in Business Breakfast Session

WinePRO 2024, the largest wine trade event in New Zealand is a little under two weeks away and they have confirmed their robust exhibitor list has now passed the century mark with exhibitors in equipment, technology, suppliers and manufacturers!

In addition, the WinePRO team has announced the panel for the Women in Business breakfast session featuring exceptional women in the wine industry!

Featuring Sponsor & MC Tracy Atkin (Chartered Accountant, Business Advisor, Mentor & Director at ‘The Wine Trellis’) as well as speakers Anne Escalle (NZ General Manager – Edmond de Rothschild, Rimpere & Akarua single estates), Dr Samantha Scarratt (Director – Australian Wine Industry Technical Conference, Senior Consultant – Wine Network Consulting) & Eva Pemper (Winemaker and Co-Founder – Eva Pemper Wines).

The panel of experts will be discussing the business challenges in the wine industry and how they can be overcome and even turned into opportunities. They will be looking back on their own experiences and looking ahead at what may be to come…

The panel, three of which have worked in overseas wine industries, are perfectly situated to discuss the blending of both the old world (Europe) and new world (NZ & Australia) of wine in business. Combine this with the different stages of their business journeys and attendees will be provided an unprecedented cross section of ideas and experiences, all while enjoying some breakfast. What a way to start your day!

Quote from Sponsor & MC, Tracy Atkin: “The Women in Business breakfast offers a wonderful chance to hear the inspiring stories of women in the wine industry, the challenges they’ve faced, and how they’ve triumphed over them. Our theme, ‘Blending the Old World and New World of Wine in Business,’ promises to bring fascinating insights from France, Croatia and Australia, with a focus on how these lessons can be applied to the NZ wine industry.

“As a Chartered Accountant with extensive experience in the wine industry and currently supporting start-ups through business mentoring and angel investment, I’m thrilled to host this event. It’s a fantastic opportunity to connect with other women in business and share our experiences. My passion is to leverage my skills in business, commercialisation and capital raising to make a meaningful impact on the wine industry, focusing on all pillars of ESG – environmental, social, and governance.”
