WBCSEvent

Thanks you for making our inaugural Connections to Contracts event a success! We were so excited to bring you this brand new event, and hope it was a day full of meaningful connections for all who attended. Please check back next week for a full recap and photos from the day. In the meantime - we want to hear your thoughts!

The path to becoming a vendor for a corporation can be tedious and use up valuable resources for a small business. If you are interested in working with large corporations like Fluor and Shell Oil Company, but not quite ready to take on this process, there is an alternative - working with Prime (Tier 1) suppliers.

The awards gala is an opportunity for the Women's Business Council - Southwest to recognize Women Business Enterprise (WBE) and Corporate (Sustaining) Members that have gone above and beyond to support women-owned businesses and promote supplier diversity initiatives.

We are excited to present our 2018 Annual Report. Providing valuable resources to women-owned businesses helped us see an exciting year of growth - including a notable 31% increase in WBE certifications in Austin, and a 94% retention rate across all members.

Between now and Friday January 16th, 2019 we are asking for help to give a shout-out to our nominees and offering you a chance to win admission to our Exclusive Gala VIP Reception!

Last week, almost 100 WBE and Sustaining members, community partners, and the Women's Business Council- Southwest's Board of Directors, joined together at Canyon View Event Center for Austin Insights.

Breaking past limits and connecting women-owned businesses with supplier diversity advocates are the themes built into Business Works, a procurement event hosted by the Women’s Business Council-Southwest.

The Cheryl Stevens Legacy of Leadership Award was created to honor leaders who help increase opportunities, serve as a role model for compassion, help to create a level playing field on which diverse suppliers can compete fairly for contracts, and ensure broad and fair access to Women Business Enterprises (WBEs).
