Partner With Us

let’s be honest,

being ambitious can feel weirdly lonely

You love what you’re building.

You’re proud of how far you’ve come.

And still…

You’ve walked into rooms where you didn’t quite see yourself reflected.

You’ve exchanged business cards that led nowhere.

You’ve wondered if everyone else has a secret playbook you missed

empowHER exists for women in business who want real connection, not forced networking or performative empowerment.

Past & Present Partners

This is the Room We Needed.

Not your average women’s empowerment network

empowHER is a global women’s network built for women who are building real businesses in real time.

We create women’s networking events, leadership conferences, and partnerships that feel thoughtful, inclusive, and genuinely useful.

No awkward icebreakers.
No hustle-culture energy.
Just smart women, good conversations, and meaningful opportunities.

We created empowHER to be the space we always wished existed - a place where women connect, share, and actually help each other thrive. No gatekeeping. No outdated rules. Just real conversations and real support.

Cate Marques - CXO, Terra Kaffe

“I've been to dozens of networking events, and I usually see them as a necessary evil: making idle small talk, getting pitched on new software...we've all been there. SheInnovates turns this on its head and has made me love a summit. The speakers are phenomenal and inspiring, the crowd is engaged and enthusiastic, and the brand partnerships make sense. During the two SheInnovates conferences I've attended, I've made new and real friendships, connected with like-minded women who, like me, are doing their best to balance life and work, and I've come away with so many new ideas. I can't wait to attend the next!”

Nikki Tooman - Founder, Sticky Digital

“Feeling truly comfortable in a male-dominated industry is rare—but empowHER is changing that. Through meaningful events and networking opportunities, they’re creating a space where women can gather, learn, and champion one another. Just the way it should be!”

Abby Barnes - Director of Client Partnerships, Horatio

“I've loved working with Nicole and the emopwHER team. Nicole has a real talent of creating events that drive amazing conversation and connections. Every time Horatio sponsors an empowHER event, I know for a fact that it will be organized, meaningful, and a great use of our time and resources. Can't wait for many more events to come!”

YOU?

This is for you if…

You want community, but not at the expense of ambition.
You’re done pretending small talk is networking.
You believe collaboration beats competition (most days)
You want to grow, professionally and personally.
You’re building something that matters to you.

If you nodded even once, you’re in the right place.

Women’s networking events you’ll actually want to attend

empowHER hosts women in business events around the world designed for connection with intention.

Our events fall into two distinct (and equally important) experiences:

Industry-Curated Experiences

Designed for women who want to go deep with peers in similar fields.

These events are thoughtfully curated around specific industries or roles, creating space for focused conversation, relevant insights, and meaningful peer connection.

Ideal for:

Founders and operators within the same sector
Leaders navigating similar challenges
Women looking for targeted, high-value connection.

Think: fewer introductions, better conversations.

Community Events (Open to All)

Designed to bring women together across backgrounds, industries, and stages.

These gatherings are open, welcoming, and intentionally diverse, creating room for cross-industry collaboration, fresh perspectives, and unexpected connections.
