February 28, 20223/2 — Founders Forum 2022: Women Who #BreakTheBias
In honor of Women’s History Month and the 2022 International Women’s Day campaign theme, the AIANY Emerging New York Architects Committee (ENYA) and the AIANY Women in Architecture Committee (WIA) are coming together for another year to showcase women firm founders and their stories.
Meet the women who are helping to #BreakTheBias in the profession while building their own practices, and learn how you can be inspired to do the same! Join us as a diverse range of design entrepreneurs share their experiences of building their own architecture studios, and see how we can all come together to build a new world free of bias, where differences are acknowledged and celebrated, and where we pursue professional excellence alongside diversity, equity, and justice. Collectively, we can all #BreakTheBias.

Emerging New York Architects
The AIANY Emerging New York Architects Committee (ENYA) encourages leadership among emerging architects (licensed 10 years or fewer) and allied professionals in the design and construction industry. We engage NYC’s diverse young professional community with an equally diverse slate of programming that focuses on career development, design excellence, and public outreach. Committee meetings are open to the public, and are held on the 3rd Tuesday of every month at 6:30pm, both virtually and in-person at the Center for Architecture, unless otherwise noted.
