About this Event
WOMEN WHO INFLUENCE SUMMIT
WHERE AMBITION MEETS CULTURE
A one-day New York City summit for individuals building businesses, careers, brands, communities, and culture.
The Women Who Influence Summit brings together founders, professionals, creators, executives, entrepreneurs, community leaders, students, men, and allies for bold conversations, practical access, and meaningful connection.
This is more than a day of inspiration. It is an experience designed to help people see what is possible, learn from leaders building across industries, connect with resources and opportunities, and develop relationships that continue beyond the room.
THE SUMMIT EXPERIENCE
ARRIVAL + CULTURE LOUNGE
The day begins with registration, connection, and time to explore the Culture Lounge—a vibrant marketplace and community experience featuring small businesses, emerging brands, interactive activations, food, music, resources, and culture.
NO STRAIGHT LINE
Two women. Two industries. No straight line to the top.
The Summit opens with a candid headliner conversation about ambition, entrepreneurship, pivotal decisions, setbacks, reinvention, leadership, influence, and the staying power required to build a lasting career and brand.
WHERE AMBITION MEETS CULTURE
Six influential voices come together for a defining conversation at the intersection of entrepreneurship, leadership, and culture. Together, they explore opportunity, trust, the decisions that shape what comes next, and what it takes to build boldly without reducing yourself to one title.
UNFILTERED
Real stories. Honest lessons. No polished talking points.
Multidimensional leaders share the decisions, sacrifices, setbacks, and realities that are rarely discussed on traditional conference stages—creating space for honest dialogue about leadership, wellness, ambition, and showing up while carrying more than people see.
BUILT FROM THE BLOCK
How Community Moves Culture and Business in New York
Community builders, cultural curators, founders, and event producers discuss how they create the spaces New Yorkers support—and how community power generates visibility, business growth, economic opportunity, and lasting impact.
LUNCH + CONNECTION
Summit attendees gather for a full lunch experience designed to continue the conversation. This is time to exchange ideas, make warm introductions, build new relationships, and connect beyond the mainstage.
PRACTICAL ACCESS
Throughout the day, attendees will connect with organizations, experts, resources, and opportunities supporting business growth, career advancement, leadership, financial progress, visibility, and the next move.
GOOD COMPANY
The day closes with music, warm introductions, brand moments, and meaningful conversation. Good Company is an elevated, relaxed networking experience designed for genuine connection—not simply exchanging business cards, but building relationships that can continue long after the Summit.
WHO IT’S FOR
The Women Who Influence Summit is centered on women and open to everyone who values entrepreneurship, leadership, culture, community, and shared opportunity.
Whether you are building a business, advancing your career, growing a brand, leading within an organization, creating change in your community, or preparing for what comes next, there is a place for you in the room.
Come for the insight. Build the relationships. Leave with sharper ideas, meaningful connections, and a clearer path toward what comes next.
