What people Are Saying...

It was networking done right: inspiring, supportive and electrifying

I absolutely love being part of The Foundry, it feels like stepping into a room full of women who genuinely want to see you win.

The room was filled with inspiring women and powerful speakers; it was a true reminder of what happens when we come together and lift each other up.

Listening to Liz Warner reignited my fire and reminded me why I am doing this. So much of what she shared resonated.

The Foundry offers an open, supportive space where women can step back from the usual networking chatter and focus on real business growth. It’s a place to dive into the nitty-gritty of being a female business owner and truly invest in your development.
