Building on last year's success, we're excited to host another Women. Work. Wealth. Benefit at the same beautiful venue, The Yale Club of New York.
The event features a fireside chat with powerhouse female founders and networking followed by a rooftop afterparty.
Fireside Chat with Petrushka Bazin Larsen and Ann Shoket
🎤 Petrushka Bazin Larsen
is the co-founder and co-owner of Sugar Hill Creamery, Harlem’s first family-owned handmade ice cream shop, which opened its doors in 2017 and now has three locations and can be purchased for pick up or delivery. In addition to keeping New Yorkers supplied with amazing small batch ice cream, Petrushka is a coach and founder of SHMOMS, an online membership community dedicated to new mothers, whether that is into motherhood, out of traditional work, or to life in New York City.
🎤Ann Shoket
is CEO of The Li.st, a national women's organization for speakers, authors and changemakers, a magazine writer and editor, founder of 10 Minutes to Togetherness, and former editor-in-chief of Seventeen magazine. She is an in-demand interviewer (she was most recently on stages at South By Southwest) and is the author of The Big Life, a motivational guide empowering millennial women to define success on their own terms—blending ambition, relationships, and personal growth into a fulfilling life.
Enjoy this engaging fireside with two local powerhouses, cocktails/mocktails at an open bar, passed hors d'oeuvres, plus an optional afterparty at the Yale Club's famous rooftop bar. Mingle with fellow New York entrepreneurs, investors and professionals while learning more about our nonprofit's cause: supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs and bridging the opportunity gap.
Talent is equally distributed. But opportunity is not.
Since 2017 the Million Dollar Women Fund (MDW Fund) has helped underrepresented entrepreneurs from across the country gain access to business training, powerful networks, mentors and the capital they need to scale up their businesses. All proceeds to benefit MDW Fund.
Special thanks to our friends at Valley Bank for sponsoring this event.
We look forward to seeing you there!
