GIRLS RISING: Building a Pipeline of Women Leaders

In its fourth year, this critical event will highlight what our community is doing to create a pipeline of young women into non-traditional careers.

More than 200 attendees from the business community will hear from corporate, government, non-profit and for-profit business leaders; all addressing what is being done and what still needs to be done to change the perceived career options for women.

We will also profile some change-making, dynamic female students entering both underrepresented fields and "non-traditional" roles for women. We will also be awarding scholarships to some of these students to help them make the next step in their education and careers.

This event and the CWCC mission is powered by the Colorado Women's Chamber Foundation to support the success of the next generation of female leaders.
