ABOUT
We created the Women in Finance platform to bring women CFOs together. Our aim is to create a network of the most powerful women in finance, working to elevate each other with discussion, skill-building, and connection. Through our events, our members learn more about leadership and how to excel in their roles as leaders.
With regular events and ongoing communications, members benefit from:
- Networking with powerful female executives
- A focus on leadership skills and career advancement
- A place for productive discussion
- Support of other women, specifically entrepreneurs and women in your community
- Carefully chosen speakers and topics, as well as small group discussions
This group is a true community. Introductions and connections to other strong, capable women are huge benefits for those looking to continue to grow their networks.
