In its 13th year, the Summit has evolved from an event into a movement. We’re breaking barriers, challenging stereotypes, and creating an environment that empowers women across the retail landscape. It’s the premier industry event for women in leadership positions at top retailers and brands. The Summit focuses on the unique needs of executive women in retail leadership positions in a non-sales focused environment. This is the only event of its kind!

Attendees of the Summit say it’s an experience like they’ve never had before. Made for and by women, focused on professional growth and development, engaging and inspiring a leadership community of the top retail and brand executives in the industry, the Summit is overwhelmingly invigorating and exactly what’s needed to reach new heights personally and professionally.

We’re so excited to host 700-plus women executives from top retailers and brands for three inspiring days of powerful content, high-level networking opportunities, and experiential activations.
