About the event
In recognition of International Women’s Day, the Vermont Council on World Affairs invites you to join us for our 2026 Women in Business Networking Breakfast, a celebration of women’s leadership and contributions to business and community life. The event will highlight how women across sectors have strengthened organizations, mentored the next generation of leaders, and contributed to economic growth and civic life over time.
Bringing together business leaders, community leaders, and aspiring professionals, the morning will focus on leadership, mentorship, and the role women play in building strong institutions and vibrant communities. Through conversation and connection, participants will reflect on women’s achievements, share professional insights, and build relationships that support continued leadership and service.
Join us to:
Connect with women and allies dedicated to advancing gender equity.
Engage in conversations on mentorship, leadership, and collective empowerment.
Be inspired by keynote speakers championing the next generation of women leaders.
