The NAWBO Women’s Business Conference is the only event of its kind focused on providing women entrepreneurs with personal and professional development opportunities to take their businesses to the next level of success. The conference brings together businesses of all sizes from various industries to celebrate and leverage the collective influence of the fastest growing segment of the economy.

NAWBO’s Women’s Business Conference (WBC) 2010 will take place June 9th -11th in Washington D.C.—where 35 years ago, a dozen like-minded businesswomen gathered to share information, create an atmosphere of professional community and further strengthen their entrepreneurial interests. This year’s conference theme “The Power of One” celebrates NAWBO’s heritage and the many firsts women business owners have achieved to lay the groundwork for opportunities that exist today. It also celebrates the fact that we live in a world where one woman, one business and one collective NAWBO voice have the power to make a difference for women entrepreneurs in the U.S. and beyond.

This year’s WBC gives participants opportunities for high-level education, tangible takeaways and connections to help them power themselves and their business.

As a conference sponsor and exhibitor, you will be among an exclusive group of organizations who partner with NAWBO to further its mission, while at the same time build your brand with this fiercely loyal sector of the business population. In short, the two are inextricably linked in that women business owners look to our sponsors for not only the best solutions

to the business challenges they face in growing their enterprises but for partnerships with companies who are true champions for their success.
