WOMEN IN BUSINESS EVENTS
The Downtown Rutland Partnership is hosting a series of Women in Business events in 2025. These events are meant to celebrate and empower women-owned and led businesses in the Downtown Rutland Historic District. Priority registration will be given to women working in Downtown Rutland. All genders are welcome. While these events and workshops are shaped for women in business, all participants will find value in the content presented.
"Women" is inclusive to those who identify as women in a way that is significant to them, including trans women and those that are nonbinary, gender nonconforming, and gender expansive.
These event are made possible by a Vermont Women’s Fund grant.
