Velvet Lattimore, the proprietor of Vedazzling Accessories, and Qiana Williams, the owner of Goddess Media, have collaborated yet again. These fashion innovators have a long history, from working together at various fashion companies to branching out and creating individual businesses.
This time, the ladies have assembled a group of influential businesswomen to share their entrepreneurial experiences with new and aspiring entrepreneurs.
The aim of the FEM event is to help participants overcome obstacles related to business ownership, grasp essential business principles, and engage with peers directly.
FEM aims to establish a welcoming and safe environment for women to openly discuss their business ventures. This community fosters unity and allows everyone present to develop and learn together.
The evening will include light bites and refreshments, and conclude with an interactive Q&A session where attendees can pose questions to the panelists, and engage in a networking happy hour.
