Girls Who Print launches India chapter
Girls Who Print India aims to spotlight female professionals & encourage new generations to pursue careers in print.
Girls Who Print (GWP), an independent network of women in the print and graphic communications industry, is launching its India chapter at PrintExpo Chennai, a Messe Frankfurt India event and one of the region’s most influential print platforms.
The inaugural initiative is led by GWP India Advisory Board members Nidhi Agrawal, CEO and co-founder of Design’N’Buy, and Madhura Mahajan, head of department for printing and packaging technology at PVG’s College of Engineering and Technology in Pune. Darshana Chauhan, head of marketing at Messe Frankfurt India and a member of the company’s extended Board of Management, has also joined the GWP India advisory board in support of the GWP mission and a stronger, more inclusive industry.
Girls Who Print India is said to mark a strategic step in creating a regional platform for professional development, leadership visibility, and networking that supports women at every stage of their careers. This initiative is launched in collaboration with PrintExpo, which has a legacy of amplifying innovation, business opportunity, and inclusive progress across India’s printing ecosystem.
“We are honored to partner with Messe Frankfurt India to bring Girls Who Print to this important region,” said Deborah Corn, executive director of Girls Who Print. “India’s print and packaging sector is rapidly evolving, and women are playing an increasingly vital role in that transformation. GWP India will help elevate their voices, connect them with opportunity, and ensure they are part of the conversations shaping the future of the industry.”
Girls Who Print India aims to contribute meaningfully to this vision by spotlighting female professionals, encouraging new generations to pursue careers in print, and fostering skill-sharing among peers and allies.
“Women in India are not only joining the workforce, but they’re also leading companies, implementing technology, and reshaping how print is produced and used,” said Chauhan. “Through our partnership with Girls Who Print India, we’re building a space that reflects that momentum, supports women across their careers in print and graphic communications, and opens the door wider for those ready to follow.”
GWP invites professionals, students, educators, and industry allies to connect with the India chapter on LinkedIn, join the global network, and help shape a vibrant, inclusive future for the print and packaging industry.
