Organizing of the 17th BPW Europe Regional Conference in Reykjavik is in full swing. The BPW Europe Regional Conference will take place in Reykjavik 27-29 May 2022 in Hilton Nordica Reykjavik Hotel.

BPW Iceland Board headed by President Johanna Kristin Tomasdottir, members of the Organizing Committee Gudrun Sigridur Jakobsdottir, Brynhildur Ingvarsdottir, Sigríður Björg Einarsdóttir  have had full hands in preparing for the Conference, arranging the venues for Welcome Party, Gala Dinner and Farewell Party. Looking for famous Icelandic entertainers and arranging the Fair during the Conference.

BPW Europe Communication Team Leader and responsible for the BPW Young Symposium in Reykjavik Sheerah Kim (Sheerah is sharing responsibilities with BPW Europe Young Representative Alice Minuto in organizing the 9th Young Symposium) participated in the meeting and gave us wonderful ideas for the Young Symposium. Sheerah met with the General Manager of the Youth Hostel for better conditions for the young members, checked the possibility to take a bus to and from the Conference Hotel to the Young accommodation and helped the Organizing Committee with IT and technical solutions.

I had an effective meeting with the BPW Iceland Board and  the Organizing Committee, got acquainted with the Conference hotel and venues, and had discussions about different aspects of getting ready for the Conference.

On 20 August BPW Iceland celebrated BPW International 91th Birthday and the beginning of the new season with the Yellow Party. I and Sheerah had the honor to be invited to the party. Icelandic women are fun and great hosts. We had a wonderful time together. Thank you, dear Iceland members!
