Ladies get Paid Town Hall: Women & Money

Please join us for a town hall where we'll share stories about money: how it's tied to our identity and self-worth, why it's taboo to talk about it, and ways women can be more supportive of one another as we move up in our careers.

60% today's college graduates are women but less than 24% of us make it past middle management. Only 4% become CEOs for Fortune 500 companies. Black female entrepreneurs generate $44 billion a year in revenue. 2% receive VC funding. If you look at the decision makers in every industry, it's nowhere close to parity. We need to change this.

Money is power. Money is value. Money makes the world go round. Let's talk about it.

Panelists:

Jill Ashton, Director of Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women

Catherine Capozzi, Founder of Bring Us Your Women

Elise Caira, Owner of SweatFixx

Belinda Rosenblum, Founder of Own Your Money

Caroline Keefe, Art Director at the Rockport Company

Elizabeth Schirick, Manager of Organizational Learning & Development at Babson College

Organizing Committee:

Ladies Get Paid started in New York but we've grown to 3,000 members representing 45 states and 40 countries. This town hall is our kickoff event in San Diego. Here are the women who have helped organize it:
