Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
3:00 PM - 5:30 PM CDT
This year marks Women Connect’s first-ever Intentional Collisions event – a highly engaging and interactive experience to connect attendees with the influential women of our great community.
During the afternoon, each attendee will have the opportunity to select up to 15 ‘collisions’ they would like to make. This will give Women Connect attendees direct access to our influential leaders, and a more intimate setting to share insights, experiences, journeys and advice, as well as answer any questions that may arise during the collision.
This interactive experience will be extremely rewarding for all that participate, and we look forward to seeing the blossoming of lasting relationships. Be sure to stick around after the event for a social - a drink ticket is included in your registration.
Attendees will be able to connect with:
