Women Business Owner’s Network

Women Business Owners Network of the Triangle was founded on July 21, 1998.

We are a non-profit whose primary purpose is to educate women business owners and give back to other non-profits in our community. Our meetings and events help connect and empower women business owners within the Triangle, but we are so much more than just women business owners… we are a sisterhood supporting each other!

If this sounds like somewhere you want to be, we would recommend you come visit an event or meeting to connect with us!
