Trades Women Build Nations is the largest conference of its type in North America and growing each year.

In 2018 over 2300 tradeswomen representing every craft in the building trades came together for this powerful event.

The conference takes place from October 4th to 6th in Minneapolis. 

We are a unique community that fosters a supportive environment, embracing and celebrating diversity. We are stronger because of it!

The conference provides opportunities for networking, learning, and leadership development for all attendees, whether you are a pre-apprentice or a seasoned journeyperson.

Trades Women Build Nations speaks to every tradeswoman’s needs, offering workshops and plenary sessions facilitated by tradeswomen and featuring union leaders, apprenticeship coordinators, contractors and politicians. This information-packed (and fun-filled) weekend will leave you with a renewed sense of purpose in your career, as well as new friends and memories to carry through life.
