Whether you're a seasoned professional seeking to expand your network or an aspiring entrepreneur, Global Woman Club Silicon Valley will support your business growth and provide amazing networking opportunities with like-minded business owners and investors.
Join us if you want to build relationships, make valuable connections and learn from inspiring guest speakers how to overcome challenges, navigate through uncharted territories and build thriving enterprises from the ground up.
About the event: If you have been following Global Woman Club and the work we do around the world to empower women you may know that we focus in two areas.
We help women build their confidence
We help women make their own money
How do we do it? We have our mantra: If You want to empower a woman, give her a microphone. How can the microphone empower women? Well, we know that in order to start their own business they need more confidence. And confidence is not something you can learn by reading books, you need to take action. This is exactly what we do, we encourage women to take a microphone and come on stage to share with us: What’s their purpose? What’s their vision? If they don’t know it yet, we help them to find it. The mic has so much power, and by coming on stage, they stand in their power. That power can also reflect success toward their projects or new ventures. This in return can reflect into real business with other like minded women. We bring them together with networking events and just in a short time they see the difference.
These are special exclusive events! The capacity is limited so please BOOK your ticket early before we sell out, and don't miss the opportunity If you are a business owner, author, coach, mentor, consultant, trainer, practitioner, accountant, retail shop owner, or simply have an idea to start your business venture. Or perhaps you want to take your knowledge and share it with the world - then this networking event is for you.
If you are a woman working for a corporate but feel you need some inspiration and want to explore more personal surrounding yourself with successful conscious international women who genuinely support each other, then feel free to join us and experience a day full of joy and hope.
This is the culture that we have created at our Global Woman Club - Empowering women Locally and Connecting them Globally.

It has evolved from Global Woman magazine, sharing so many great and inspirational stories and often bringing these women together to connect and share in person. Speak to anyone who has attended and they will say that it is unique and different to any other networking event they have been to. It has a warm, relaxed and supportive energy, and everyone is open and authentic.
It is about building relationships and seeking mutually beneficial collaborations from a rich cultural diversity of women, very successful in what they do, but in such a broad range of professions and businesses.
What they share in common is to serve a social and human good and purpose in whatever they do. For the entrepreneurs, it is to profit with a purpose. For career professionals, it is to succeed with a purpose. We often refer to it as the 'Life purpose'.
It is the combination of all these magical ingredients that sprinkle a glowing sense of empowerment and happiness. United we are stronger and ready to face any challenges we are experiencing or may meet.
Get a sense of the occasion by viewing a snapshot of the action and hear what the women have to say in the video here:
Our aim is to connect professional and business women around the world, and we are celebrating together knowing that many of us may have come from different countries, different backgrounds and even being at different stages of life and our profession or business but we all have something in common: the drive and the passion to succeed in business or our chosen vocation.
Global Woman Business Club helps women to build their confidence and belief that they can be successful in whatever they do. We help them build their brand and create awareness about their projects through our media platform.
Non-members can attend once to try it out and decide if they want more of the Global Woman experience. Members can attend any physical club networking event in any location, or any virtual online networking meeting, and speak to the room or online group there.
We do take pictures at events and share on Facebook (join us and see them at the Global Woman Club group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/554833658194282 and on the Global Woman lobby; https://lobby.globalwomanclub.com/ We will contact you about this and other events after you have booked your ticket. You may unsubscribe at any time.
In the last 8 years I have been travelling around the world and I have met thousands of women with a big desire to grow, expand and go global.
Perhaps you have wanted to have launched your business earlier, or feel you are not prepared now. The good news is, that you are still in time to start building your personal brand, your Global Platform, and grow your confidence by being part of Global Woman and feel the power of the support group that you will find here.
Hurry up! Places are limited.
YES! I want to be part of it.
