This is where women entrepreneurs and future entrepreneurs can gain insights, tips, and inspiration from other fellow women to be a better you, and how you can reach your goals without compromising your personal commitments.

This year the Women's Entrepreneur Summit is expanding it's reach to include women in or surviving from domestic violence who are looking to transition to economic success through entrepreneurship.
