In 2018, a group of women business owners met up to share their challenges and look for opportunities to support and collaborate with each other. The group continued growing and meeting monthly and now meets on the Second Monday of each month at Guide Realty. In addition to networking, each month a different speaker shares their knowledge with the group on topics related to women and business.
In 2022, recognizing that the 8:30AM meeting time did not work for everyone, quarterly Boss Lady Night's Out were started in addition to the monthly meetings! The group kicked off with a Garden Party on a hot summer night and enjoyed a Night Out playing live trivia in the fall (and won!).
In 2023, the group of over 500 women was named Women Entrepreneurs Lex. Unlike referral based networking groups, the focus of Women Entrepreneurs Lex is support and education (though lots of referrals happen organically).
Women Entrepreneurs Lex continues to grow! This November, Women Entrepreneurs Lex will host a luncheon to celebrate Women's Entrepreneur Day and honor local women business owners.
Stephanie Spires, President and Chief Executive Officer of Women Entrepreneurs Lex, is a serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, child and family advocate, and mother of five. Spires has over 20 years' experience working with businesses and nonprofits.
