This year marks Women Connect's third annual Intentional Collisions event - an engaging and interactive experience connecting attendees with our FMWF community's influential women.
During the afternoon, each attendee will have the opportunity to select several 'collisions' they would like to make. This will give Women Connect attendees direct access to our influential leaders, and a more intimate setting to share insights, experiences, journeys and advice, as well as answer any questions that may arise during the collision.
This interactive experience will be rewarding for all participating, and we look forward to seeing the blossoming of lasting relationships and life-changing connections.Meet this year's mentors
