The Centre for Women in Business along with RBC, our event’s Gold Sponsor, are asking for video submissions of no longer than 60 seconds, from Nova Scotian women business owners and entrepreneurs who want to share about themselves, their businesses, and what being a woman in business in 2022 means to them. On Tuesday, March 8, 2022 from 9-10 a.m. we will gather virtually to reveal the contest winners and share in a light celebration of International Women’s Day and the incredible community of women we serve.
