Special Event: Power Night to benefit SheEO at Galvanize, Denver

Now more than ever we need to come together as women and leaders to create a collective vision for increasing our power and influence on the planet. I hope you’ll join me at this special event to become re-invigorated, strengthen our networks and create new ways of making capital available to the women entrepreneurs who are creating waves of impact in the world.

Together with our sisters from SheEO, Emerging Women is hosting a Power Night on November 17th at Galvanize in Denver’s Golden Triangle. We’d love for you to join us.

This celebration will feature amazing women who have been blazing the trail to a brighter future and building great businesses in the process. You will also find deep connection and community in our signature Power Circles as you experience the in-the-moment power of asking for and receiving what you need in acts of radical generosity.

Power Night will benefit SheEO and its movement to redesign how woman-led businesses are funded, supported, and celebrated. Despite women starting businesses at twice the rate of men, they are still wildly underfunded. SheEO is out to change that by building a whole new field of play, created by women for women and built on Radical Generosity. This video explains how:

Emerging Women is supporting SheEO’s Colorado launch, and we want YOU to be part of this growing movement by conencting with and getting inspired by brilliant Colorado women. Ready to make this happen?

Panel: Grace and Grit: Founders’ Stories of Vision, Perseverance and Heart

Featuring Niki Koubourlis, Founder and CEO of Bold Betties; Jillian Gibbs, Founder and Global CEO of Advertising Production Resources; Amy Bayer, CoOwner-CoCEO, PorchLight Real Estate Group; Victoria Qunitana, Co-Founder & Board Chair of Istonish, Inc.

niki.pngEvery major life decision Niki Koubourlis made up until 2012 was motivated by a desire for security. The career she chose, the schools she went to, and the man she married were all based on a desire for security. But when she had built that secure little world, she found it wasn’t enough. Her life lacked purpose and passion.

Since leaving her 80+ hour workweeks behind, she has spent a lot of time outdoors, trying new things, seeing new places and making new friends. She is not your stereotypical hardcore, accomplished outdoorswoman, but she discovered that it doesn’t really matter if she is with the right people.

That is why she founded Bold Betties and Bold Betties Outfitters. Bold Betties takes the intimidation out of adventure by connecting women to each other, the outdoors, and ultimately their fabulous selves.

Jillian Gibbs founded APR to set new standards for advertising production consultancies. She sees APR’s role as a true production partner, not a cost-containment advisor. Her vision is to take a more comprehensive approach that helps clients optimize advertising production with stronger processes, greater efficiencies and cutting-edge production approaches across all media. Jillian has helped define new standards and best practices within the production industry throughout her 20+ year career for industry associations like the ANA, WFA, ACA and ISBA.

Today, APR is one of the nation’s fastest-growing advertising production consultancies with subject matter experts in all major production centers (Europe, North America, LATAM, and Asia). Jillian continues to expand APR’s original mission, providing clients with a growing choice of service offerings that reflect the ever-changing media landscape.

As a top-producing REALTOR® in Denver, Amy Bayer averaged more than $10 million in annual sales but inherently knew there was a better way to conduct business. She believed in a company based on emphasizing long-term, authentic relationships—a real estate company that looks at real estate in a different way—one totally committed to the client and that gives back to the communities they serve.

Amy co-founded PorchLight Real Estate Group with her partner, Carol, to raise the bar in the industry. By instituting the highest level of agent education and training standards, the pair created a sophisticated infrastructure and in just 12 years they have risen to the top three brokerages in Denver market share and are arguably the most tech-savvy brokerage in Colorado. A professed self improvement junkie, Bayer leads with eternal optimism, support of her 150+ brokers and is 100% immersed in achieving excellence across her business.

In 1990, Victoria Quintana founded Istonish with her sister, Annette. Their initial vision and dedication to creating an organization that was built on service, excellence and unbendable ethics, has led them from assisting companies and governmental agencies in finding the best technology talent, to now building and delivering IT solutions. Istonish is headquartered in Denver, Colorado, but works nationwide across a diverse sampling of industries: Government entities, medical, energy, telecommunications, oil and gas, as well as small organizations and Fortune 15 companies.

Having led Istonish through rapid growth during turbulent economic times, Victoria now serves as Board Chair while also leading a Denver Vistage International group. Victoria has a passion for strategy and participates on executive advisory boards of companies and non-profit organizations, helping them hone their vision, mission, core values, operational and financial plans.
