Corvus North Women Entrepreneurs Network
Invest in yourself and your business
|
This quarterly series is for women entrepreneurs and the people who support them. We feature the most interesting leading speakers presenting on issues impacting women business owners. We build in ample time for you to network with and learn from your peers. Held over lunch or happy hour, we meet in unique locations that are easy to find and fun to explore.
Corvus North President Jennifer Halcrow built the network as a way of thanking the remarkable women entrepreneurs who helped her business succeed -- operating at a profit from its inception. Jennifer knew that if she could help more women connect to share ideas and advice, they would experience success, too. The network is designed as a break-even venture to make it affordable for women start-ups to attend. |
