Give to Gain: IWD2026 Female Business Owners Event Presented By Westpac & Tech Ready Women

At this International Women's Day event for female business owners, attendees receive a "Give to Gain" token upon arrival that they exchange by offering tangible support to fellow founders, such as introductions, social media shares, or mentoring conversations. The event features 60-second business pitches from founders, panel discussions on leadership and backing women in business, rapid one-on-one consultations with investors and entrepreneurs in an "Expert Corner," and a marketplace for displaying business merchandise and cards. The gathering brings together approximately 150 growth-minded female founders and entrepreneurs to build social capital, access expertise, and promote their businesses within a supportive community.
