During the luncheon, the table with the most number of donors wins mini bottles of champagne to take home. In the case of a tie, the table with the highest donation total wins.

WBE Led Roundtable Discussions

Sponsored by Anderson Asphalt & Concrete Paving

In an effort to bring more visibility to the wealth of skills our WBEs provide, we're offering WBE led roundtable discussions centered on business themes.


How It Works
There are roundtables of 8 seats. One seat is for the WBE host. The other seats are for participants (women-owned businesses and corporations alike) interested in learning about that table's theme. The host will share her experience on the theme and what has worked well, then open the table to questions.

Once registered for Harvesting Partnerships, there is no additional sign up required to participate in the discussions. Seating is open on a first come, first served basis.

WBE hosts stay at their table. Participants rotate and have the opportunity to visit a total of four tables.

Timeline
Each discussion is 20 minutes followed by a 5 minute rotation.
