YOU’RE INVITED: HELP CELEBRATE OUR TENTH WGLC
Gulf Publishing Company’s tenth Women’s Global Leadership Conference in Energy and Technology (WGLC) takes place in October! It’s an exciting time to be a woman in the oil and gas industry as new discoveries and technological innovations create global opportunities. We’d like to invite you to attend the 2013 WGLC conference 29-30 October, 2013 and take part in this special event.

We hope to see you there.
