Women & Business Conference 2021

Registration has closed. If you would like to be added to the waitlist, please email events@slchamber.com

The Salt Lake Chamber Women's Business Center's Women & Business Conference and ATHENA Awards Luncheon is the primary fundraiser for the Women's Business Center. This event is filled with inspirational speakers that recognize the accomplishments of those helping make a difference here in our local community.

The past year has shown us that we can survive almost anything with a little grit and grace. It has shown us that through trials and tribulations, we can grow into the people we were meant to be. Come join us and hear from inspirational speakers who know this firsthand, learn valuable business insights to further your professional growth, foster relationships with other businesswomen in the community, and much more. 

During the luncheon, the Salt Lake Chamber will present the ATHENA International Award to an active member who demonstrates creativity and initiative in business, provides valuable service by devoting time and energy to improve the quality of life for others in the community, and assists women in reaching their full leadership potential.

In addition to the ATHENA Award, the Chamber will also recognize business and community leaders with the Pathfinder Award for their work to create new paths and promote the development and recognition of women in business.

Masks or face coverings are welcome, but not required for those who are vaccinated. Those who have not been vaccinated should wear a mask.
