This past weekend, we attended the Women’s Empowerment Expo where they had tons of vendors who were woman owned businesses, panelists focused on female entrepreneurship, and resources for female empowerment in business. So we were thinking about how important and impactful it is to build a supportive network as an entrepreneur, especially as a female of color, because sometimes entrepreneurship can feel lonely and scary if you are doing it all on your own. 

So today, we will cover:

1.  Why it’s important to build a supportive network, especially for female entrepreneurs of color, 
2. How you find it or build it, and 
3. How to ensure you set yourself up for a successful day of networking.
