The SouthCoast Women's Forum is the ideal setting for leading business professionals, and aspiring women in business to connect, learn, and be inspired by other women! This unique event celebrates the accomplishments of women while motivating other women to follow their example. 
 
Today's economic, cultural, social environments are constantly evolving and adapting to new technologies and ideas.  Each generation depends on the other and it is vital to share efficient strategies from generation to generation in order to be well-rounded, successful and most importantly remain relevant in an ever-changing professional and business environment.

For these reasons we choose


Across the Generations
as the theme for our 2018 SouthCoast Women?s Forum.
 
The event will focus on how women have progressed, developed and learned from one another through generations.
