The annual Inspiring Women Event is a marquee event not only for the Chamber but for the entire Region of Waterloo. The Inspiring Women Event is for professional women, entrepreneurs, and community leaders who want to connect, learn and grow.
A full-day event designed to motivate, inspire, connect and celebrate professional women and entrepreneurs. Since its inception in 2006, over 7,000 women have participated in this unique day of learning, sharing experiences and information, acquiring new contacts, networking with peers, and education through professional development break-out sessions. This event is a truly motivational experience geared towards entrepreneurs and career women from all business sectors at all stages in their careers.

On the first Tuesday of each month, we feature a new Female Founder, including a video interview of their business story and inspirational advice for other business professionals.

Each year, we host a Dress for Success Drive and ask attendees to donate business-appropriate clothing, shoes, and accessories to help empower local women entering the workforce. Donations are accepted by The Green Door. Over 500 items of clothing were collected last year including dozens of shoes, purses, and accessories! We filled a 121L container of shoes and 1 for purses alone! All donations are greatly appreciated – thank you!
