Female Founder Day Returns to New York City

Female Founder Day Returns to New York City

Get ready for the most badass entrepreneurial event of the year in the city that never sleeps- New York City! Brought to us by the Female Founder Collective, Female Founder Day, which will take place on March 21st, 2024, is all about women claiming their spot in the business world and building legacies that will resonate through generations.

So, why is it so important to “Build Your Empire” in the concrete jungle? According to the organizers, NYC, with all its hustle and bustle, brings out the best executives and business owners, especially the female kind. The event promises to unleash actionable tools and information for women entrepreneurs, ensuring they reap the wealth they truly deserve – flexibility, health, money, and happiness.

The lineup for the day is nothing short of extraordinary. Visionary leaders from various industries coming together in NYC with one common mission in mind – to build empires founded by women. From Monique Rodriguez, the CEO of Mielle Organics, to Allison Wyatt, the Co-Founder/CEO of Female Founder Collective, and Allison Cooper, Partner at Fenwick & West, these empresses are here to empower the next generation of builders.

What to expect

The day will kick off with ‘Coffee & Connections,’ setting the vibe for a day packed with keynotes, panels, and workshops. The schedule includes a ‘Big Exit Panel’ featuring Liz Elting, Monique Rodriguez, and Sarah Chambless, providing attendees insights into the secrets of successful exits.

There will be workshops covering crucial aspects of entrepreneurship, such as Marketing, Communications, Crisis Management, Leadership, Negotiation, Resilience, Org Planning, Performance, Operations, Funding, Fundraising, and Bootstrapping. Renowned names like Melissa Duren Conner, Lauren Wesley Wilson, Morgan Debaun, and Megan Dolce are leading these sessions, ensuring attendees won’t leave without knowing useful, actionable strategies.

The event also emphasizes the power of networking. Attendees will be able to strategically network during lunch, VIP lunch, and cocktails. And let’s not forget the grand finale – ‘The Pitch Demo,’ where aspiring founders get to showcase their ideas to a panel of experts.

What can attendees expect from this power-packed day? Important, candid conversations, practical and beneficial takeaways, and exclusive gift bags filled with all sorts of goodies from female-founded brands. They will also be able to mingle with and learn about not only the next generation of female entrepreneurs but also those at every stage of their entrepreneurial journey, plus founders seeking a meaningful shift in business growth.

This is because the Female Founder Collective (FFC) is not just about events; it’s a platform connecting over 20,000 women globally.
