Today, and every day, Verizon is proud to celebrate the awe-inspiring women propelling our communities forward into the digital age. In honor of International Women’s Day, V-Teamers were excited to be on the ground this week with incredible organizations focused on female empowerment.
On Thursday, the sales team attended the EmpowHER: Women-Owned Small Business Resource Fair, organized by our partner The Maryland Women’s Business Center. EmpowHER created a collaborative space for women business professionals to share ideas, foster connections, build a supportive community, and exchange strategies to overcome today’s business challenges. The Verizon team was onsite to interact with the local community and provide resources on how to build their businesses in a complex technological landscape.
Later in the day VZ attended the AWE Women in Business Summit, presented by the Arlington Chamber of Commerce. This professional development and networking event was designed to bring together a diverse group of women entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals. The Verizon team was onsite to meet with these awe-inspiring women to discuss how to overcome digital challenges of entrepreneurship, as well as how to overcome traditional barriers faced by women in the workplace.
These incredible female entrepreneurs are recognized and celebrated by Verizon on International Women’s Day, and always! They continue to inspire us as we move #forwardtogether into the digital age.
Happy International Women’s Day!
