Girls Who Print announces Global Summer Summit & worldwide call for speakers

Girls Who Print announced its Summer Summit 2026, a free two-day online conference taking place July 29 & 30, exploring the forces that shape careers, leadership, and influence across the print and graphic communications industry.

The conference theme, “The Elements of Impact,” is structured around four elemental tracks: earth, wind, fire, and water, each representing a different force shaping careers, business, leadership, and influence across the industry.

The Summer Summit also includes an open worldwide call for speakers and panelists. Girls Who Print members and professionals from companies sponsoring the organization are invited to apply to participate in discussions aligned with their expertise and experience. Professionals from every segment of print and graphic communications, and all levels of experience, are encouraged to apply.

“Women in print build careers the same way the elements shape the world around us, through strong foundations, expansion, and the ability to adapt and keep moving forward,” said Deborah Corn, executive director of Girls Who Print. “The Summer Summit moves from earth, the foundation of impact; to wind, the reach of impact; fire, the energy of impact; and water, the flow of impact, to provide attendees with a strategic roadmap for expanding their visibility, influence, opportunities, and long-term success.”

The summit will also feature a “Lunch with Girls Who Print” session from noon–12:45 p.m. ET each day, providing attendees with opportunities to learn more about the organization’s mission, followed by an open discussion about the morning sessions and a preview of what is still to come.

“Lunch with Girls Who Print invites attendees to be part of the conversation,” said Kelly Mallozzi, vice president of Girls Who Print and host of these open discussions. “The opportunity to exchange ideas, gain valuable insights, and network with women around the world can have a powerful impact on your career journey, no matter where you are on it.”

The event is free to attend thanks to the support of Girls Who Print members and sponsors.
