3:00 pm Conclusion and wine down
To say things will be a little different this year will be an understatement... but we're women and we know how to pivot and persevere!
This year's event will be virtually social!
- Sponsorships are $300 for 8 participants.
- Sponsors are asked to host the 8 attendees at their place of business, home, back yard, a friend's business... whatever feels most comfortable to you! Host your friends, coworkers, clients - those folks that you've been networking with safely and feel comfortable being near.
- Sponsors will receive 8 fun bags for each participant that include a commemorative glass, other goodies from sponsors, program materials, and one bottle of white and one bottle of red for the wine down at the end of the day.
- Sponsors will be sent the conference link a week prior to the event, and we will provide technical assistance to make sure your set-up is optimum for participating in the event.
- Sponsors are asked to provide boxed lunches for their participants at their host location (that's why we can offer the sponsorship so affordably!)
Don't need a sponsorship for a table of 8? No worries, businesses can sponsor without participants for only $100 and will have their logo shown during 8 separate sessions throughout the day.
Single seat participants are only $35 and will be sent the log-in information the morning of the event. We're sorry, but single-seat participants will have to provide their own wine and check their own technical connections!
