Women on the Rise
Since 2018, BRA has hosted an annual awards luncheon to celebrate female and non-binary entrepreneurs. Each year we honor three individuals who are either trailblazers and have paved the way for other women, or who are “up-and-comers” successfully following in their footsteps. Our 6th annual social impact and networking event of the year is on Thursday, March 14th, 2024!
