Who is this event for?
Elevate ATX is more than just a networking event. We are a community for women in business and entrepreneurship to feel more connected to themselves, other like-minded women, and our amazing city.
Whether you’ve lived here your whole life, or are a recent transplant, you’ll have the opportunity to meet new people who are passionate about what they do.
Our community and content is designed to support women leaders with 5-15 years of experience who want to have deeper conversations around work, worth, and wealth, and what it means to be a woman in the business world.
