Today, around the world, women are minding – and running – their own businesses. We are following our dreams, building companies and allowing our entrepreneurial spirit to take us to new heights. Our progress is impressive; our opportunities, huge.

The Kauffman FastTrac Global Women's Summit is:

  • A gathering of strong, ambitious, creative, collaborative, empowered women;
  • A day of learning, where you walk away with immediately useful, relevant, actionable tips and tools for business building;
  • A celebration of who you are, what you will be, and all the people who have and will help you along the way.
