From Generation To Generation: Building & Preserving Generational Wealth

Women are starting businesses by leaps and bounds. NAWBO Memphis is helping women grow those businesses and leave a legacy for the next generation.

During National Women’s Small Business Month, come hear how women are growing their businesses beyond small to be thriving, sustainable businesses. Not only are they leading businesses that support their families, these women business owners are creating jobs that positively impact multiple generations.

Our luncheon speaker will be Briggette Green of Top Cat Masonry, and breakout sessions will be led by Brandy Aden of A&B Construction and Elizabeth Tate of Signet Inc.

This event is free to attend, thanks to our generous sponsor, MLGW!
