The theme for this years’ WeROC® conference is RISE. Less than 4% of angel and venture capital investment goes to women-led startups and has been closer to 2% over the last 2 years. We seek to collectively change that number by building better advisory networks and communities to support women-led startups.
WeGOLF® brings together women entrepreneurs to foster new relationships while having fun learning new skills. WeGOLF includes a 9-hole golf tournament at Thanksgiving Point Golf Club, awards, raffle, and networking dinner.
