Welcome to the 2018-19 National Capital Region season opener, "Women who Launch."
Why you should join us:
This season we're excited to begin with engaging four amazing women in a panel discussion that focuses on women launching empowering and impactful initiatives in Ottawa.
What important steps did they take to get their project off the ground? How did they propel their ideas forward? What can they share to help you progress a project you're working on?
We're excited to learn from their experience and set our intention for the season - "we are stronger when we work together."

Stronger Together
We have used this motto to describe the WCT-NCR's own initiative Her Words, Our Wisdom , launched last season, which focuses on women sharing our experiences to help empower others move forward in their professional capacity and career.
This season we'll continue to ask you to help us grow this collective by sharing your own advice at any future WCT-NCR event. This event is sure to provide inspiration for launching your own initiative and what expertise you can share.
