Process Engineer at Hatch

“I think at different stages of my career, CIM has brought me different things. As a student or young professional, it was really about the technical content, learning, and building my professional network. Later on, it became more about networking, benchmarking, seeing what’s happening in the industry and staying up to date. And I think that will continue to evolve throughout my career.”
