Then we’ll gather in the Great Room for HerStories\, a series of short\, powerful talks from leaders\, entrepreneurs\, and investors sharing real moments that shaped how they chose to take action\, what they learned\, and what they would do if they were starting today. \nAfter HerStories\, you’ll join a small table conversation to reflect and shape the discussion by creating one question your table wants answered. Those questions will guide a lively\, practical moderated Q&A with the HerStories speakers. We’ll take a short snack break\, then shift into “Ask Me About” stations where you can have more personal conversations with speakers and meet others in a relaxed\, self-directed way. \nYou’ll leave ready to be part of a different future\, one shaped by women using money with purpose and confidence to strengthen their communities.
