Three hours. Real conversations. Real growth.
Business Lounge is Women Listed's flagship in-person event — a small, intentional gathering designed for women entrepreneurs who want more than just networking. Every edition brings together a curated group of early-stage founders for a structured morning.
No panels. No keynotes. Just a focused expert session, a round of 60-second elevator pitches, and time to actually get to know the people in the room.
Five things in every edition
Expert Session
A focused deep-dive with a guest expert on a business topic that matters right now — this edition features Vandana Tolani on The Growth Gaps You Can't See.
