The theme for the conference is “Mind Your Business”. A defining time and era where we need to remember our roles as women but also recognize our resiliency and strength as women entrepreneurs. Our Eeyou/Eenou women are valuable, and we need to ensure they are nurtured and recognized in our
society.
It is a time to recognize and honor these women in business. This event will be one of our empowering and prominent events and we are blessed to take this initiative to recognize our Eeyou Iskweu.
Across Eeyou Istchee, there are women who inspire us through their achievements, their dedication, commitments, and outstanding contributions in economic development in their communities. Who is she? We need YOU to nominate an inspiring woman!
