Power Hour Sponsors are guaranteed 2 matches with the Corporates of their choice.

As always, the Executive Networking Luncheon’s unique format where attendees will be given the opportunity to sit at two different tables and allowed to network with several different corporate representatives and fellow women business owners makes this event stand a mile above the rest.
