Join us for an unforgettable evening of bold ideas, authentic conversations, and meaningful connections at Mintz’s premier annual women in leadership event.

Each year, Mintz brings together a vibrant community of Bay Area leaders, trailblazers, and aspiring changemakers for a conversation on timely topics around leadership, diversity, professional development, and advancement.

This year’s theme is Developing an Entrepreneurial Mindset. An entrepreneurial mindset isn’t just for founders— it’s a way of thinking that empowers professionals at every level to lead with creativity, take initiative, and embrace continuous learning.

The event is led by a panel of four inspirational women sharing their experiences and diverse perspectives. It is designed to spark fresh ideas, build community, and empower attendees to lead with purpose and presence.

Receptions will be held before and after the panel to provide an opportunity to network and build meaningful connections. The event is open to all.
