Anne Berg, vice president of manufacturing for agricultural solutions at BASF, has been inducted into the Women in Manufacturing (WiM) Hall of Fame, recognizing her decades of leadership and dedication to supporting women in the manufacturing industry.
Berg, one of 10 women honored in the 2024 class, was celebrated for her influential role in promoting the advancement of women in manufacturing throughout her 28-year career at BASF, where she has held leadership roles across Germany, Belgium, Spain and the U.S. Currently, Berg oversees agricultural product manufacturing across the Americas, managing more than 500 colleagues.
"We congratulate Anne on joining the 2024 class of the WiM Hall of Fame, an outstanding achievement that recognizes her contributions to manufacturing and her support for BASF's commitment to attracting, developing, and retaining top, diverse talent," said Marc Ehrhardt, president and CEO of BASF Corporation.
Berg’s recognition highlights her ongoing contributions to fostering inclusive workplaces and promoting employee development. "At BASF, Anne is known for her passion for shaping the future of manufacturing," added Ehrhardt.
Berg and her fellow inductees were selected through nominations by peers and evaluated by a judging panel from WiM’s executive committee. The award recognizes women who have made substantial contributions to the industry while uplifting others.
"These remarkable women have set new standards for future generations of manufacturing careers," said Allison Grealis, WiM president and founder.
The induction ceremony took place in Boston, MA, on Oct. 6, celebrating these leaders’ achievements in advancing diversity and inclusion within manufacturing.
BASF, an active member and sponsor of WiM, provides its employees with free WiM memberships, offering access to a range of professional development resources. Several BASF leaders also serve on WiM's board of directors.
