Where?/When?:, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday
Why Go?: The Harmarville-Oakmont Chapter of Women’s Business Network meets at the Oakmont Carnegie Library on the first and third Friday of each month. The group provides a venue for meeting and networking with successful women entrepreneurs in the local area. The purpose of the organization is for members to grow their circle of influence, improve their “60-second” commercial and create lasting business and personal relationships to further business growth within a supportive environment. Meeting agendas include self-marketing, a business presentation by an individual member, a table topic discussion and networking. Each chapter is category exclusive so once a business category is filled by a qualified applicant, that chapter category is closed.
