We believe in the female entrepreneur.

We host networking events throughout the year and an annual Fast Pitch Competition for women founders to win cash and professional services.
We are founded and supported by accomplished female leadership
With 25 women CEOs and 300+ years of business experience, we provide real, substantive guidance, connection to capital, and opportunities for lifelong mentorship to empower you and grow your business.
