Five powerful VSEDC leaders, one amazing conference, and a vision as wide as the Rocky Mountain sunset.

We spent days at the AWBC Denver learning, building connections with fellow champions of women in business, and thinking deeply about how to unlock even greater potential for our small business community. Now we get to put those ideas to work.

That’s the part we’re most excited about. What’s one thing you’ve learned recently that you’re ready to apply to your business?

Our favorite part of learning? Bringing it home.

We returned from the 2026 Leadership Conference with fresh ideas, new connections, and even more energy for serving South LA’s entrepreneurs.

When Women’s Business Centers come together, we strengthen more than our organizations, we strengthen the communities and entrepreneurs we serve.

The 2026 Leadership Conference brought together leaders from across the Women’s Business Center network to exchange ideas, build relationships, and explore new ways to support women business owners.

We’re returning inspired, connected, and ready to put what we learned into action.

Finding your first customers is one of the most exciting and often most challenging milestones in launching a business. Without paying clients, even the strongest products and services remain just ideas.

The Client Acquisition Lab is an interactive, roll-up-your-sleeves workshop designed to take the guesswork out of early sales. Led directly by VSEDC President & CEO Dr. Jazz Keyes, this session guides you through the fundamentals of market discovery, authentic outreach, and actionable sales planning. You won't just learn theory - you will walk away with a clear, realistic action plan to target, connect with, and close your first 10 paying customers.

South LA is leading the stage!
