What is the Women Entrepreneur Speaker Series?
A series of talks dedicated to helping women explore the possibilities of starting their own business and finding out what it takes to make it happen.
The journey will begin with the very inception of an idea. Along the way, you’ll be provided with valuable information and advice from our expert panel to help you get off on the right foot and make your business successful.
At each speaking event, we will have entrepreneurs in different stages of the entrepreneurial process to talk about their experiences, battles, successes, and setbacks. Our speakers will offer advice, resources, and fundraising opportunities and they will answer any questions you may have about your business needs.
