Attendees generally wear business casual attire. During the day, you will be moving throughout the convention center, including up and down stairs, so wear comfortable and appropriate clothing and shoes. You will receive a Conference tote bag upon arrival to hold all of your program materials.
We’re opening up the Exhibit Hall the night before the Conference to host a kick-off celebration. This is a separate ticketed event that is not included in your main Conference registration.
On September 30th from 5-9 pm you can enjoy meeting speakers, author signings, the opportunity to support women-owned businesses and local charities, and live entertainment while making great contacts before the big day. Food and drink will be available for purchase. Learn more.
Registration opens on our website six months in advance of the upcoming conference, unless otherwise noted.
Please be sure to join our email list to receive news about next year’s conference and other events.

Most warmly! If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. We believe that gender partnership is the surest way to workplaces that work for everyone. While the majority of our attendees are women, men are starting to attend in greater numbers and typically find the day’s programming unique and enlightening.
