Seeking Creative, Innovative Business Stories for January’s WomanUP event
Dec 15 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
online
Our WomanUP Celebration in January will focus on deliberate creativity & innovation that leads to a business thriving. Innovation is critical, especially during times of change or uncertainty like we’ve experienced during the past two years and we know there’s been a lot of creativity among our business community.

While the program will teach attendees how deliberate creativity works, we’re looking to highlight some local businesses who have gotten creative and innovated in recent years.

Our speaker, Dr. Amy Climer, will weave some of these stories into her presentation at our event on January 27.

Have you faced a challenge that you approached creatively? A business challenge? A new way to support your employees? It doesn’t have to be COVID-related and it doesn’t necessarily have to have been a success. We want to hear your story.

If you have a story about creative innovation, contact our Vice President of Communications Erin Leonard at [email protected].
