Orelogy was proud to have both Farnoush Eftekhari and Melissa Devlin represent us at the WIMWA Summit 2026, alongside our colleagues from the Perenti Group. This event brought together mining professionals to exchange insights, challenge perspectives, and inspire one another.

A special takeaway from our team member Farnoush, who attended the summit:

“I’m always happy to attend the WIMWA conference because the speakers openly share their career stories and personal experiences, which I find really inspiring and valuable to learn from. It reminds me that when challenges or difficult situations happen, they don’t necessarily reflect a weakness in us. We’re all strong in our own ways, and working in the mining industry itself shows the resilience, strength and determination we have.”

The summit reinforced the importance of authentic leadership, human connection, inclusion and resilience, with thought-provoking discussions led by industry leaders, academics and workplace experts.

Thank you to Women in Mining WA (WIMWA) Summit 2026 for creating a platform where people can share experiences, challenge thinking and inspire the next generation of mining professionals.
