SUMMARY:WE Forum - Finding Your People
DESCRIPTION:FORMAT CHANGE: Zoom Only\n\nDue to the surge in COVID\, this WE Forum meeting will be virtual only. The Zoom link will be sent in the registration confirmation email.\n\n*Date Change: WE Forum will now be on the 4th Thursday of the Month.

The idea started as a partnership between Saint Mary's University and the Rochester Area Economic Development Inc. (RAEDI). In 2020\, the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce joined as a partner\, and in 2021\, the Collider Foundation\, SCORE\, and Rochester Women Magazine have also joined the partnership.

There is lots of room for questions from the attendees to ensure the discussion is relevant\, informed by experience\, and addresses the real questions women have when running a business.\n\n\n\nWhy Join Us?\n\nThese events have proven to be valuable networking and learning events for women business owners. It is a chance to hear from those who have faced the same challenges and hear how they navigated those challenges to become successful entrepreneurs. Join other Rochester area women who are passionate about their ideas and their business. You may find your next client or business partner!
