If there's one thing this issue has proven, it's how many outstanding women there are in Westport, Weston, and Wilton. One of our Women of Westport honorees, Melissa Conner, has noticed this too—it's why she launched a Connecticut chapter of The WIE Suite, the private membership network founded by Dee Poku in 2020 and designed for exceptional women including C-suite executives, high-growth founders, investors, and cultural leaders. Earlier this year, I attended the launch event at the Delamar, and left incredibly inspired by the creative, driven, and goal-oriented women in the room. This isn't a typical networking organization: the events are thoughtfully planned, "high-impact learning experiences" that, Melissa explains, "are designed to support leadership growth and provide members with tactical insights from peers and industry leaders." The Connecticut chapter is sure to thrive given the industry leaders right here in Fairfield County—check out a WIE Suite event and see for yourself.
