Kristine Bocchino and Kaitlin Wilkes are on a mission: to build a community to foster the growth and success of women in the hospitality and drinks industry. Their new, much-needed initiative is named after and inspired by the first woman to take up the position of Head Bartender at the American Bar at The Savoy Hotel, the incredible Ada Coleman.
Launching April 30th, The Ada Coleman Project is a dedicated digital space to empower women+ working in hospitality. As well as mentorship opportunities, networking round tables and workshops, the project is set to become a go-to for event and competition organisers and those seeking to diversify their panel of guest speakers. That’s down to its brilliant database, a meticulously devised list of talented women+ covering various regions, backgrounds and areas of expertise.
