Empowered Women Powering Penticton's Businesses
Thank you for your interest in Penticton Women In Business! We are a female driven networking organization made up of South Okanagan women. Our members and guests are owners or employees in finance, tourism, health, education, industry, retail, service, marketing, and everything in between. You don’t need to be a business owner to participate.
We would love to have you join us!
Luncheons are held at restaurants or venues in Penticton from 11:30-1pm, a 'power' lunch! Included with your ticket is your meal and a non-alcoholic beverages. Each luncheon allows time for informal networking around the table and room, followed by a 20-minute presentation by the keynote speaker and the sponsor, who is given the opportunity to discuss their business, product, or service. Keynote speakers are often experts in their field , and discuss topics that are relevant, educational, and inspiring to our members.

If you are interested in sponsoring one of the luncheons, or would like to host one at your food and beverage premises, please email Penticton Women in Business directly at pwib@telus.net . Please note that sponsorships include a fee, and hosting an events assumes a partial in-kind sponsorship contribution in order to keep ticket prices affordable for everyone who attends.
