Women's Empowerment Night and Showcase at PhD Lounge
After last week’s turnout, we’re keeping the momentum going with a tighter focus on women founders and investors. 170+ people registered and 50+ real introductions were made founders met investors and those conversations are already continuing.
This week at PHD Lounge, we’re bringing together women who are building, backing, and actually moving things forward.
Sophia Smith, management consultant at http://sophiasmithconsulting.com, will lead a focused conversation on navigating spaces that haven’t always been built with women in mind.
At 10:45 PM, we’ll host a private women’s showcase at our table upstairs, featuring 8 women speakers sharing what they’re building and their perspectives on women’s empowerment.
From 10:00 PM, we’ll be upstairs for general networking so people can arrive, grab a drink, and connect before the showcase begins.
During the showcase, the table will be reserved for women participants and speakers.
Men are welcome at the bar and encouraged to network throughout the space.
Doors close at 11:30.
