About this Event

Join us this April in Portland for Women. Money. Power. — a gathering designed to celebrate women’s economic influence and create space to learn, connect, and be inspired.

📅 Date: April 30
🕘 Time: 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM - Kick-off at 8:45am!
📍 Location: Portland, Oregon (final venue details coming soon)
🎟️ Cost: $50
A portion of ticket sales will be donated to AllRaise.

We want this event to be accessible to everyone. A limited number of Community Tickets will be available for those who may not be able to purchase a full-price ticket - please email the event organizers.

Why Attend?

Women play a critical role in shaping our economy from driving consumer spending to leading businesses, managing households, and influencing investments and philanthropy.

Yet many people, especially women, feel insecure or like they can't talk about money. This is meant to be an authentic experience where we can learn from others and realize just how powerful women are when it comes to driving economics.

What to Expect:

You’ll hear from women leading across finance, investing, philanthropy, and entrepreneurship alongside interactive breakout sessions designed to make money more understandable and actionable. Be prepared to share your experiences and learn from others.

Please note that the event organizer reserves the right to deny entry to anyone who is suspected of solicitation or dishonest or disrespectful behavior.

Breakout topics include:

  • Personal Money Foundations
  • Money & Relationships
  • Investing & Growing Wealth
  • Entrepreneurship & Ownership
  • Philanthropy & Collective Giving
  • Women and Wealth in the Age of AI

More details coming soon: we hope you’ll join us for an inspiring and impactful morning.
