We've got a special treat! Sharon K. Gillenwater, a bootstrapped tech startup founder, author, and speaker, will be making her way through upstate NY! She has agreed to speak, with our own, Diana Kleps, founder of Weprogy, and a group of entrepreneurs while she's in town.

Join us for an insightful fireside chat with Sharon, who is dedicated to making entrepreneurship more accessible for everyone. Sharon, who grew her company Boardroom Insiders, Inc. to a $25 million exit without losing her soul, will share her journey and secrets from her book "Scaling With Soul: How I Built & Sold a $25 Million Tech Company Without Being an A**hole." This is a unique opportunity to learn from her experiences, get inspired, and understand the nuances of scaling a company with integrity. Don’t miss this chance to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and gain valuable insights into creating successful and soul-aligned enterprises. Bring your questions, network with fellow attendees, and let Sharon’s journey inspire your own entrepreneurial dreams.

This is a private event at NextCorps, and seats are quite limited! Please RSVP to guarantee your seat!
