Small Business Advocacy Panel

Being a business owner in Santa Barbara is…hard. From access to capital and navigating a competitive commercial real estate market, to gaining support from those in positions of power, it’s a lot to take on.

Did you know NAWBO was the very first organization to advocate for women business owners? Many don’t – but we’re changing that! We want to advocate for you, and we also want to provide a platform for you to advocate for yourself.

Join us for a round table discussion at Workzones with Robin Elander, Kristen Miller, Jason Harris, and Irene Kelly to share your needs as a local woman business owner. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn from our guests about how and what they are doing to help women entrepreneurs. Appetizers and wine will be served.

Our goal? That local decision makers understand the issues that are most important to women entrepreneurs today, in order to best inform policy, access, resources, and community support for your success.
