Women are rising to the top in male-dominated industries, but continuing this charge calls for the support of like-minded professionals. To provide valuable connections for women, Better Business Bureau Serving the Pacific Southwest (BBB) is hosting its 4th Annual Industrious Women’s Summit (IWS) on August 20.
The virtual event will feature interactive discussions on professional growth to empower female business owners and employees. The keynote will be delivered by Gloria Feldt, a New York Times best-selling author and feminist leader who has gained national recognition as a social and political advocate of women’s rights.
The agenda encompasses a roster of over 20 inspiring women speakers who are experts and leaders in their industries, from organizations like LOVE Painting Company, CPR Construction Cleaning and Weld Like a Girl™. Session topics include Succeeding in Male-Dominated Industries, Digital Marketing Tips for Female Entrepreneurs, Unlocking Positive Values, Women in Construction and Building a 21st Century Workforce. Attendees will select various tracks to customize their needs and interests through Whova, an event management platform.
Tickets are on sale at iws.bbbcommunity.org for $20 for BBB Accredited Businesses and $30 for guests. A limited quantity of Industrious Leader Packs are available starting at $45 and include an event ticket and IWS memorabilia .
