Beyond Business: Women Who Venture

This installment of Beyond Business puts the spotlight on a powerhouse lineup of Arizona women who are making bold moves, leading innovative ventures, and challenging the status quo. In a world that too often pits women against each other, we’re choosing to celebrate the power of community, collaboration, and real conversations.

Join us for two dynamic fireside-style chats featuring women who are not only building businesses and breaking barriers — but also lifting each other up along the way. You can expect unfiltered insight, hard-earned wisdom, and an environment that is welcoming to all, no matter where you find yourself in your career or business.

Fireside Chat One – Creating What We Wish Existed
Highlighting innovation across industries and the bold steps women are taking to build businesses and spaces that center their experiences, values, and vision.
Panelist:

• Vanessa Garcia, Founder & CEO, Performant Scout
• Megan Greenwood, Founder, Greenwood Brewing
• Emily Call, VP Chief Brand and Marketing Officer, OneAZ Credit Union

Fireside Chat Two – Collaboration Over Competition
A conversation around identifying your unique value proposition, building intentional relationships, and embracing the idea that there’s space for everyone in entrepreneurship.
Panelists:

• Ashley Kelly, Vice President Sr. Business Consultant, JPMorgan Chase
• Christina Spicer, Co-CEO, Girl Scouts Arizona Cactus-Pine Council
• Priscilla Ornelas, Radio Personality & Nonprofit Founder, MIX 96.9/104.7 KISS FM & Community Comadres

While this conversation centers women in entrepreneurship, everyone is welcome — no matter how you identify.

In addition to lively discussion, Beyond Business: Women Who Venture will feature a small pop-up shop experience featuring a handful of Arizona-based, women-owned businesses that you can shop from or learn about while in attendance.

Guests can also expect tasty bites and drinks, generously provided by local partners from the community.
