Roadrunners and community members are invited to attend Women Entrepreneurs Week events hosted by the Center for Entrepreneurship at Metropolitan State University of Denver. The weeklong virtual event highlights and celebrates women entrepreneurs.

“The women speaking are visionaries, the leaders of tomorrow,” said Rebecca Prater, lecturer, Management, one of the event’s organizers. “They see how things should be and are moving confidently in this new direction.”

Prater hopes the speakers’ passion and personal stories of success will activate attendees’ own sense of entrepreneurship, giving attendees new ideas and inspiring action.
