Event Description:
E3 Women’s Conference August 22: Educating & Empowering Entrepreneurs
Women entrepreneurs and small businesses at all stages can take home useful insights from the 2019 SCORE E3 Women’s Conference Wednesday, August 21, and Thursday, August 22, at the Doubletree Convention Center, 2431 N. Glenstone Ave.

Experts in business development, financing and marketing will provide sessions for business startups, companies experiencing new growth, and businesses in a transitional phase. Early-bird registration ends June 30.

“Our mentoring sessions often reveal that women entrepreneurs are not
prepared for the basics of running a business,” said Mary Overbey, conference Diversity and Inclusion Chair. “They may be an expert in their chosen field, but accounting, marketing, financials, planning, etc. just aren’t in their wheelhouse. This conference will allow women to learn the information they need to truly succeed, give them the opportunity to connect with other local women on the same journey, and identify the resources that can assist them before it’s too late.”

Network with other business-minded women and conference speakers at a kick-off reception by Rosie from 4-7 p.m. Wednesday, August 21, at the eFactory, 405 N. Jefferson Ave. The Thursday, August 22, conference at the Doubletree Convention Center begins at 8 a.m. with registration and continental breakfast, and will include networking and exhibitors all day, as well as the following highlights:

 Joy Robertson, of KOLR-TV’s Ozarks Live will emcee the day’s events.

 Keynote speaker is Kelsey Raymond, cofounder and CEO of Influence Co., a content marketing agency with offices in St. Louis, Kansas City and Columbia. She was named to Forbes 30 Under 30 list. Her topic is “Lessons Learned From Growing from 2 to 80 employees.”
