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.
