I’ve always been a connector, but Connect4Women has challenged me to be more conscious and deliberate about it. I love the magic that happens once a connection is made. I’ve met business peers, mentees, and really incredible visionaries. More importantly, Connect4Women has reinforced the importance of seeing ourselves as connectors for others.
— Kristy Wallace, CEO of Ellevate Network
So many of our networks and online communities are superficial, but Jen and the Connect4Women community’s genuine care really shines through.
— Ania Wieczorek., Co-Founder of Bowery Analytics
Connect4Women introduced me to women I wouldn’t otherwise have met. It expanded my network with a set of women who are all in on supporting one another and actively looking for ways to advance each other.
— Erika Balbuena, Chief Impact Officer of Robinhood
