"Entrepreneurship – One Road to Independence" is the topic for the Women's Business Center's fourth annual Economic Development Conference, set for April 10-12 at the Carambola Hotel on St. Croix.
The agenda is filled with business, government and nonprofit organization speakers — local, national and international — presenting sessions on a wide variety of topics. They are packed into three active days, starting April 10 and ending with an Empowerment Gala and "dancing on the deck" Saturday evening.
Jennifer Nugent-Hill will be honored at the closing black-tie gala, which will include cocktails, dinner, silent auction and dancing.
