Women-owned businesses are the fastest growing segment of new business in our economy, but there continue to be challenges in starting up a business, growing an operation, and increasing market share.
This live event, which featured panelists in financial planning, wellness, social media, journalism, small business, and engineering, provided the audience with gems of information about the highs and lows of starting and succeeding in your own business. After the presentation, audience members were able to receive advice from the distinguished panelists.
