It’s a pivotal time for women in power. A new crop of game-changing entrepreneurs is invigorating the industry with dynamic strategies — from innovative product to bold partnerships.
On the evening of Aug. 3 at The Plaza in New York, FN and Two Ten Footwear Foundation will come together once again to host the “Women Who Rock” event to shine a light on these bright talents.
After networking and cocktails, a special panel discussion featuring Olympian-turned-entrepreneur Allyson Felix, Birdies’ CEO and co-founder Bianca Gates and Loeffler Randall chief creative officer and founder Jessie Randall will highlight their unique journeys, the challenges they’ve overcome and the opportunities ahead.
Mergers & Acquisitions.
“I didn’t know that there was such a huge issue with women not being involved in the process of making shoes,” Felix told FN last year when she won the FNAA Launch of the Year. “As a professional runner, [to know that] the shoes I’m wearing are not made for women, that’s crazy. How is that still happening?”
Women Who Rock, which is being held as a complementary event to the FN Summit on Aug. 3, is sponsored by Birdies.
