WBCSEvent

On November 12, the Women's Business Council - Southwest hosted an open house for members and non-members alike to meet the WBCS staff and tour the office headquarters. Attendees learned about 2019 organizational insights and performance from WBCS President, Debbie Hurst. The 2020 Board of Directors were also introduced.

This outreach event caters specifically to women of color business owners and their staff who are interested in doing business with corporations and/or government entities.

Do you know a WBE who is involved with WBCS, committed to working with other women-owned businesses, or a leader in their industry? Have you worked with a Corporate (Sustaining) Member who is dedicated to expanding opportunities for WBEs and sharing procurement opportunities? Nominate them for a Gala award!
