Women's Networking MeetingDate: Thursday, February 23, 2012
Time: 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Have you ever wondered what other women are thinking about..? What solutions they have found, what questions and challenges they face? Have you ever wondered how you can meet more women business owners (or women in business) in the Northeast Kingdom? As you probably realize, networking opportunities for women, particularly in the Kingdom, are very limited. Event scheduling, topics discussed, fundraising focus, and membership requirements often have the effect of excluding many women or are, at the very least, simply not appealing to women.
Please join us at Lyndon State College on February 23, 2012 from 1 pm to 3 pm in Room LAC 400. Ann Nygard, Director for the Center for Rural Entrepeneurship (CRE), will deliver a presentation on our ability to tap into student assistance at Lyndon State College to help your business grow.

CRE Director Ann Nygard is a graduate of the College of Human Ecology at Cornell University. She went on to receive her M.B.A. at Helsinki School of Economics and Business Administration in Finland. After working in Europe and Africa for thirteen years, Ann decided to return to the NEK to raise her family in 2002. Prior to taking on her duties at Lyndon, Ann worked as the executive director of the Northeast Kingdom Travel and Tourism Association and in Washington, D.C. as Associate Director of The Center for Sustainable Destinations at the National Geographic Society.
Please join us at Lyndon State College on February 23 to learn about this fantastic opportunity in the Northeast Kingdom.
