Our October Monthly Meeting is a non-partisan Candidate Forum designed to connect you with policymakers and give you insight into how this year’s election could shape and affect your business.

NAWBO members and Ohio businesses are diverse in many ways, including the size of their business, the sectors and communities they serve, the stage of business development, race, ethnicity, geographic business areas, and political leanings that determine policy views. We recognize the ever-present need to represent all members while creating the avenue and environment to build sustainable women-owned and diverse businesses.
