The session is designed to address the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ women business owners by sharing resources\, strategizing to overcome problems\, and forming new partnerships. This session is open to all women business owners who identify as LGBTQ+. \nWHY PARTICIPATE?\nStudies show that LGBTQ+ women are underrepresented at every stage of the management pipeline. For LGBTQ+ women\, who are workplace minorities in both gender and sexual orientation\, the feeling of isolation is common—and particularly challenging—in work environments. \nThe Women & Pride Peer Group was designed to build a community of LGBTQ+ women business owners to voice shared experiences\, strategize with one another to overcome problems\, and to strengthen the WBENC entrepreneurial ecosystem. \nLearn More & Register\nAs an outreach and development program\, WBENC Women & Pride programming is open to all women business owners who identify as LGBTQ+\, including WBENC-Certified Women’s Business Enterprises and those not yet certified. We also invite all allies of the LGBTQ+ community including WBEs\, Corporate Members\, and other partners.
