MIDWEST WOMEN
ENTREPRENEURS COLLECTIVE
Entrepreneurship should never be a solo journey!
ABOUT US
Nebraska is home to over 65,000 registered women-owned businesses.
Iowa boasts more than 99,000 women entrepreneurs.
​
Despite these numbers, there was no unifying organization to connect, support, and elevate these businesses. No single platform dedicated to providing the resources, mentorship, financial education, and advocacy that women entrepreneurs need to thrive.
​
Through discussions with women involved in the startup ecosystem, women entrepreneurs on this journey, and my own experiences...
The Collective was born out of the needs discussed...... because: Entrepreneurship should never be a Solo journey!
TESTIMONIALS
“The Connector Series was a great experience. It brought together thoughtful business leaders and created a comfortable space for meaningful conversations and connections. I found it both insightful and inspiring.”
Puja
What a joy to sit with other entrepreneurs and feed off the collective wisdom in the room! Before an event, I sometimes wonder if I have the time - or energy - to attend. But the Connector Series was exactly what I needed. Time well-spent to walk away with actionable steps that will impact my business immediately. I left with more energy and enthusiasm. Thank you!
So glad this group exists --- I see great things ahead!

What an amazing event with so many incredible women. Cary Carbonaro was fantastic, I’m looking forward to reading her book, Women and Wealth, and have already followed her on social media.
Looking forward to the next event! Thank you again for the warm welcome.
