WHAT WOMEN BRING

WE'RE EMPOWERING WOMEN
with our annual #WhatWomenBring event

In May 2018, hundreds of women (and men!) from across the Charleston region came together to celebrate women’s leadership in business, community, and culture. (See the 2018 photo booth pics here!)

In May 2019, even more women and men (sold out even with overflow space added!) came together to celebrate women's accomplishments and talk about the very real challenges women still face in business and the workplace today. (Scroll down to see the event photos... and see the 2019 photo booth pics here!)

Our 2020 #WhatWomenBring event was postponed from May to October 1 due to the historic coronavirus pandemic, and was then our first major event to be held virtually. See the 2020 virtual photo booth pics here!

At all three events, WCBD News 2 TV anchor & event emcee Octavia Mitchell led an active conversation between an engaged audience and a panel of women leaders who have been changing the face of women in business across 10-12 different industries, each one candidly addressing real issues women commonly confront in the career world. At the first two, positive energy filled the Charleston Area Convention Center ballroom and spilled out into the hallways; at the third, positive energy filled the online chat rooms of our virtual platform!

Please stay tuned for the date of our 2021 #WhatWomenBring event!

How you can help

As always, there will be a variety of sponsorship levels to choose from.

If you're an individual, please attend #WhatWomenBring in 2021 — and invite your friends! All are welcome. One of the wonderful things about #WWB is its diversity, in every way: by age, race, gender, profession, orientation, and the like.
