The only event in the industry curated for women in home building, remodeling, and home improvement, the Women in Residential Construction Conference (WIRC), will be held October 1-3, 2025 in Austin, Texas.

Hosted by Pro Builder, Pro Remodeler, and Custom Builder, WIRC returns for its 10th year of educating, connecting, and celebrating more than 300 women from all sectors of residential construction. The event consists of three days of educational sessions and networking opportunities geared at arming attendees with the latest insights into business management, marketing, operations, sales, technology, customer experience, and more.

Sessions will provide attendees with dozens of takeaways to implement into their business, plus professional development topics aimed at cultivating stronger leaders and managers. Dynamic open roundtable discussions pull back the curtain on businesses from across the country, providing attendees with real, proven solutions to real questions.

"No matter where you are in your career, surrounding yourself with like-minded women who get you and understand what you’re up against—there is no other support group in order to become your most successful self,” said F.H. Perry Builder President Allison Iantosca of the 2024 conference.

 

Allison Iantosca, president of F.H. Perry Builder, presents “How to Thrive While Standing at the Edge of What You Know” at the 2024 conference. Iantosca highlighted her personal journey leading a successful remodeling company, sharing insights and inspirations for attendees to define leadership for themselves.
