She Started It: Film Screening & Women Entrepreneurs Panel
        
Friday, April 26, 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
       

Join us for a screening of She Started It, which follows five passionate, trailblazing young women who strive to compete and thrive in the ruthlessly competitive boys club of high tech start-ups. After the film, stay for lunch and learn from a panel of five women entrepreneurs who will share their own stories of creating their own Houston-based startups and nonprofits.
